I was thinking about the useless way that Radeons handle fog in Thief 2, so I decided to go to the ATI technical support / advice site ((
https://support.ati.com/ics/support/TSFolder.asp) here) and fill out a support request 'ticket'.
I very much doubt that they'll even reply, but I was thinking that maybe if a lot of us write to ATI technical support in a short space of time, each complaining about the failings of the Radeon's fog table emulation in Thief 2, they might actually consider doing something about it.
It's probably a lost cause, really. One can but dream...

They definitely aren't going even to move a finger for a 6 year old game..
If source of Thief was available, I think it would be quite easy to edit a few bytes to fix fog appearance, but honestly I don't consider this problem annoying at all. Only very tiny portion of FMs use fog anyway, and it often looks good in them even on Radeons (when it isn't dense, the infameous "wall of fog" isn't noticeable).
