Hi Sio2

You sound like the man/woman for the job, we/I would be very happy if you could take point on this, as the majority of us dont have anywhere near the level of skill/knowledge that you have just demonstrated.

This would also mean that I/others would be free to choose what gfx card to upgrade to and not be tied to ATi for fog support...

I would suggest either continuing this in the guild section or in my (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=117616) thread

I've moved this discussion to Bikerdude's thread, where I've volunteered to take a look at this. Heck, I'm fed up of not having fog too!

What compatibility modes does Vista have? In XP you have 95, 98 and 2000 and sometimes one of them fixes various problems with certain games.

Non of the above will work willie, currently the only solution is to use an ATi card. But fear not SiO2 is working on a universale fix for the fog so it will be able to work on ALL gfx cards.

No fog in Shipping....

Just Life of the Party, Precious Cargo, and Masks.

Zontik announced on darkfate.ru forum that he bought laptop with Intel GMA500 which shows fog. This is his Acer Aspire One with fog in his upcoming FM.

The GMA500 chipset, is brand new. While slower, it has more upto date features than the old GMA8xx/9xx series. And that is why it supports fog under T2.

Well bugger, that's good news. I just bought my wife a new (refurbished) Dell laptop but I've yet to put Thief on it to see if it has fog. I don't even know off hand what chipset it uses, but I know it is on board.

The GMA500 chipset is relatively new, so Ill be suprised if your wifes laptop has this chipset, but it cant hurt to try.

I bought almost the same laptop with almost exactly the same chipset, and no fog for me. I think I already posted about this in the Tech forums.
