which version of pv3d libraries have you used?
Can you share it?

thank you

ive looked all over the web and cannot find anything that can work without using basicview

i try to run the code:

var fogMaterial:FogMaterial = new FogMaterial(0xffffff);
var fogLayers:int = 8;
var minDepth:Number = 3000;
var maxDepth:Number = 60600;

but i get the error:

override public function drawTriangle(tri:RenderTriangle, graphics:Graphics, renderSessionData:RenderSessionData, altBitmap:BitmapData = null, altUV:Matrix = null):void

Thanks!

private function setupFog():void {
renderLayers = [];
renderLayers.push(viewport.renderLayerManager.defaultLayer);

for(var i:int = 0 ; i < fogSteps ; i++){
var l : RenderLayer = new RenderLayer();
viewport.addRenderLayer(l);

// l.alpha = i * (1 / fogSteps);
var ct : Color = new Color();
ct.setTint(0xffffff, i * (1 / fogSteps));

l.transform.colorTransform = ct;

renderLayers.push(l);
}
}

private function sortObjectsForFog(e:Event):void {

for each(var do3d:DisplayObject3D in scene.children){
if(!do3d.culled)do3d.renderLayer = renderLayers[Math.abs( Math.min(fogSteps, (do3d.screenZ) * .08 << 1 ))];
}

}

However if you are interested in the fog itself you should look at this post of Andy Zupko, he has build fog into pv3d as a renderer filter.

1119: Access of possibly undefined property renderLayerManager through a reference with static type org.papervision3d.view:Viewport3D.

I’m using the latest great white revision through svn, are there some extra classes I need to download? thanks for any advice.

Glad you like the fog, the bitwise operations is a different story, they can be either handy or very fast or both. Unfortunately for me in the fog source the left bit shift is rather useless as it is equivalent to casting a Number to int and the multiplying it with 2 which is rather stupid than smart because this way i end up with half the layers not being used at all.

thanx for pointing it out

I’m just wondering cuz I am trying to learn to use bitwise operators in my code and I have to say its been kicking my butt. So when I saw you using it successfully in your code I though “Hey, lets break down the math so I can learn to use it”.

Just wondering, if I’m wrong tell my I’m a dork. But please enplane why I’m a dork.

Thanks, and the fog simple kicks ass. I love it.
