Description:

GF Fog Script , create your desired , Environment.
You are free to do anything but i would like to give me Credits for this!
Simple and easy to use and adapt .
Have Fun !

 

Installation / Usage:

For usage instructions and information of how to use the GF Fog Script please refer to the included documentation and/or example mission.

Place in your mission the files . There is everything included , in the initPlayerlocal.sqf  , to copy paste in your mission .

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/SQF_syntax
Don't try to open this with the simple notepad.

For everything that is with comment // in front or between /*
means that it is disabled , so there is no need to delete the extra lines.

You can open this ex:
with notepad++
https://notepad-plus-plus.org/

and also use the extra pluggins
(this way will be better , it will give also some certain colours to be able to detect ex. problems )
http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=8680

or use any other program for editing .

For the Compilation List of my GF Scripts , you can search in:

Notes:

Create your desired , Environment.
The script will spawn a normal fog for player ,
according the selected options and a large size fog for the vehicles.
There are 3 types of Fog for each.
It is possible to spawn this , at a certain position , object or unit :
    
name this ex : GF_Fog_3
    
# These examples are included in the end of the script

GF_Fog_3 spawn GF_Fog_Type_2;

or for more object with the same spawn :

null = {_x spawn GF_Fog_Type_1;}forEach [GF_Fog_1,GF_Fog_2];

So anyone who would like to add some video or picture , for any of my content , would be very nice !

Hi sorry not sure how to use this.

 

I name my player GF_Fog_1

 

then put in init:

 null = {_x spawn GF_Fog_Type_1;}forEach [GF_Fog_1,GF_Fog_2];

 

 

?

[GEORGE FLOROS GR 4207]

How did you came up with this ? !

 

In every published script that i have , there is always an example mission .

 

This means , that there are all the available files codes and execution , in order to test the example mission .

Every Test mission , has the complete files that you could use either as a base to create your mission .

The main folder of every mission should have the following :

 

description.ext

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Description.ext

 

init.sqf or initPlayerlocal or initServer or initPlayerServer check here :

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Initialization_Order

 

 

So inside the initPlayerlocal.sqf

because this is where it should execute , there are these lines:

[] execVM "GF_Fog\Credits.sqf";    // Please keep the Credits or add them to your Diary
[] execVM "GF_Fog\GF_Fog.sqf";

TIP : if you are not using a program for editing scripts , like notepad ++ or anything , don't expect to write , or use the codes correctly.

 

It is also possible to use this 3 type of different fog for a local effect fog in the map placed on an object as the example missions .

The effect values of all three types can change also to less and more.

Check also to  @pierremgi  's  information !

In MP, you should use  event scripts making things easier. Try to re-order things like this:

 

in initServer.sqf  >>  all scripts for server only

note:  + all shared variables with initialization at start (for example scores or common reference, so you need to publicVariable them for their actual value).

 

in init.sqf >> all scripts for server and clients. Here the scripts run at each JIP.

 

in initPlayerLocal.sqf  >> all local behaviors like HUDs, map... and event like onMapSingleClick

So your openMap and request ... should be in such sqf.

Hey again 😄 Is it possible to change the height and density of the fog?  I would like it just at knee height and barely moving.

[TPM_Aus 137]

As you can see, the fog goes pretty high up in the sky.

 

[GEORGE FLOROS GR 4207]

You need to play a little bit with the values of the particles !

It needs to spend some time in this , so you need to check it your self !

So else , ou are the ony one actually , that you know the result that you want .

[GEORGE FLOROS GR 4207]

In there you have a sunny summer weather, so it's way different from 1st person with limited view settings and a cold weather.

 

You can also check if you want here , if you want a cold environment :

 

 

[TPM_Aus 137]

All I can say is wow, your scripts are awesome.  I will be using a heap of them 😄

[GEORGE FLOROS GR 4207]

Thank you very much and for anything that you want generally , there is also this topic , with the whole list :
