Hello, so I’m building a temple for my cult and I want to give it a creepy vibe. I don’t know how to dark the sky and have dark fog in the game. Any suggestions help. Thanks!
Older way:
Go to Lighting and you will see fog color, fog end, fog start. If you want a dark fog then you could change the fog color to a dark color and make the fog end lower it’s up to you.
Newer way:
If you want the fog to blend in with the sky you should use atmosphere, atmosphere changes the look of the skybox and the map, it’s very useful. If adding atmosphere didn’t work it’s because you forgot to add the skybox to the lighting. Skybox and atmosphere both work together.
I want to go do the atmosphere path since it look interesting and detailed. Would I add ‘Atmosphere’ to lighting or ‘Sky’
Both, you need sky for atmosphere to work. Don’t use the older way, you’ll get much better results with atmosphere.
Do you know how to make a skyblox? I made the atmosphere and sky a bit foggy I just want it to be dark fog (sorry if i’m asking a lot.)
Edit: Wait I figured it out. Ignore this reply.
You’ll need to experiment into messing around with ‘Atmosphere’. Properties Haze and Color and tweaking it a bit and find something that suits the game.
You could also achieve a dark sky approach while using a atmosphere and focusing on the lighting property’s such as Brightness - Ambient - OutdoorAmbient if your going for a eerie approach i would change the ambient so it’s sort of darken the place and mess with the “Brightness” to something like 0.1.
You basically have to mess around with the different lighting settings and mainly focus on the atmosphere and use a bit of (colorcorrections) if your wanting a creepy eerie approach it’s worth testing and experimenting with different selections.
First, go into lighting.
Change the time to night, maybe 12 AM?
Go to ColorShift_Top and change the color to a dark color, and adjust to your taste.
If that isn’t enough, go to Ambient and change that to a color you want.
