â—‹ Overview

Simple yet beautiful height fog with directional light and animated noise support. The height fog will provide a volumetric-like effect while using a lower computation power! Built with Amplify Shader Editor, all shaders can be modified with ease to your needs. Add fog support for any transparent shader using the functions available for Amplify Shader Editor, Shader Graph, or any custom-written shader!

â—‹ Limitations

🞫 SM2 devices are not supported

🞫 Only higher-end mobile devices are recommended

🞫 Only one directional light is supported

🞫 Point light and spotlights are not supported

🞫 This is not a true volumetric fog solution

🞫 This fog requires depth rendering capable devices

🞫 Orthographic camera is only supported in Standard Render Pipeline

🞫 Transparent objects can cause visual artifacts because they don't write to the depth buffer and manual setup is required to make them work properly

🞫 Due to Depth rendering being broken on Oculus Quest with Multiview on Standard RP render pipeline, the fog will not work properly. Multi-Pass can be used instead.

🞫 Due to the immense number of URP versions, many of them with broken depth buffer or various issues based on the URP asset features enabled, URP 7x and URP 8x is not tested in VR!

â—‹ Disclaimer

âš‘ Atmospheric Height Fog is a cheap height fog solution, not a true volumetric effect. While it adds missing features on Standard RP and URP like height mask, directional color, and 3D noise support, it will never replace the high-quality volumetric fog provided by HDRP! HDRP support was added at users' request and it offers a really cheap/familiar solution for the fog! Atmospheric Height Fog doesn't use post-processing and it can be used alongside other fog solutions.
