when i search the manual i find this information
https://docs.otoy.com/#standalone-v3-us ... fog-system

it seems to me that it's possible to create fog (can't see the details in the image though) in the standalone, but is it also possible in sketchup?

or is there somekind of fake fog that can be used?

thanks

Hi jorgensen,
unfortunately the Environment Medium option is not exposed in the current version, but you can use the old way with a specular material, index = 1, fake shadow active, and scattering medium:

Hi jorgensen,
please check if the Fake shadow option is active, otherwise the light doesn't easily travel through the fog.
