Experimentation with vertical fogThis experiment is actually a couple of months old at this point but has been put to the side for a little bit to make a better implementation. It doesn't look half bad, but there are some limitations. For starters, this is not volumetric. It is a post-processing effect utilizing the dept...

Here is a fun little tweak that is coming in an update soon.In TaleSpire, we love the tile-based approach to things. We also love what can be achieved with clipping but, due to tiles have similar sizes, it's easy to cause z-fighting.Yesterday, Ree suggested I try to add a tiny offset to the positions, so they were less l...
