Fog Plus Volumetrics...? 2004-02-20 - By Thomas Lindsey
Back
Another option might be to render the fog first, load the image as background ,
and then render the volumetrics (layering). Or vice-versa. If your effects
are subtle, you'd never know they were two separate passes.

I was worried that would be the case...

You know, I have the Fog shaders but haven't used them yet. I'll have to
give it a try. And Brandon had sent me a pic+ Adv. Vol.s settings which is
a good starting point, because I haven't yet used Adv. Vols., incredible as
it seems.
There is always something new to learn with 3D! WHich of course is the
reason why I remain som interested in and by 3D - can't be bored when
continually searching for, and figuring out, solutions to new puzzles <g>.
Thanks for the tip, I'll give this a try.
