Just what I needed, awesome!

[@MatthieuHuguet-d3t]

Thank you Jonathan I remember so many times creating my own material that I forgot on older pc or github version. Now it's much easier ! As Designer.

Nice! Great vid

Glad you enjoyed it! 🤙🏿

[@ak0manda]

amazing thank you, just working on it. any way to get rid of the sphere shape for the local fog volume? scaling seems to be locked no matter what you do.

[@JonathanWinbush]

Not that I know of I know it's a new feature so maybe thats something that'll be expanded on in 5.5

[@ak0manda]

@@JonathanWinbush thanks :) to play with the shape would be amazing for surrealistic landscapes/space/planets and so on. Lets see 5.5 🙋🏼‍♂️

[@Mandance]

What about visual bugs you get from having multiple placed?

[@shakaama]

nice video

[@marktomphotography]

No more fog cards? Nice! 💨

[@JonathanWinbush]

100% 🤙🏿🤙🏿

[@pjliao09]

HI Winbush! Thank you for this video! have you tried to make it work in path tracing?

[@JonathanWinbush]

@fallenavatar09 I haven't I don't really use the path Tracer at all

[@aerospacenews]

🌟🌟🌟Another really useful one Jonathan @JonathanWinbush - appreciate you putting this together. I thought I knew of all the major features in 5.4 but this was not remotely on my radar.

[@JonathanWinbush]

@aerospacenews yea they seem to keep sneaking up I only found out about this 2 days ago myself

[@aerospacenews]

@@JonathanWinbush I bought EasyFog just about two months ago... don't regret it because I appreciate William's work too, but, may not have exactly needed it... 😉I know they are two different solutions but there will be some use-case overlap.

[@DamonPowell-s5v]

Nice video, is it possible to change the shape of the fog?

[@JonathanWinbush]

Not yet but it's still experimental do hopefully they expand on it

[@boym8123]

Brilliant why does it disapear n fade through the floor when character closes in on centre of it from 50ft away

[@JonathanWinbush]

Yea I'm not sure if that's because its experimental or by design because I had that issue as well after awhile

[@boym8123]

@@JonathanWinbush huh, thanks.. Great to know, I'll use a few emitters instead.

[@ISknne3D]

any idea how to have it active nearer the camera? so when im animating a camera through it it stays and doesnt dissapear?

[@JonathanWinbush]

@ISknne3D I'm not sure but i left the link for the documentation where it had deeper explanations for all the settings

[@appleejack]

@@ISknne3D Console command : r.LocalFogVolume.GlobalStartDistance 20

[@brunobordini7696]

Is it possible to apply noises on this fog?

[@JonathanWinbush]

I didn't see anything about it on the docs I'm not sure

[@brunobordini7696]

[@hassanpainter3d]

Hey, What is the new graphics card for Unreal Engine sir?

[@JonathanWinbush]

@@hassanpainter3d I'm not sure I understand the question

[@gameswownow7213]

we have this in UEFN as well?

[@JonathanWinbush]

I just checked I don't see it there

[@gameswownow7213]

@@JonathanWinbush thank you

[@gameswownow7213]

@@JonathanWinbush wanted to ask you, of topic. if i want to migrate certain meshes from certain marketplace downloads, do i need to install full package and choose only the meshes i want to migrate for UEFN? and if package has 10 GB but what i need has only 20 mb how can i get rid of the 9.8 GB after i migrate? i just delete the project from which i migrated?

[@JonathanWinbush]

@gameswownow7213 if you mean migrating from ue5 you can just migrate the items you need you don't have to migrate the entire thing

[@TheGrrson]

Aw yeah.

[@juliuscagara]

This is such a time saver. Can the local fogs be animated with a noise texture? I used to do this process: kzbin.info/www/bejne/goWzq5ZvaruMaK8 But it takes some time to setup.

[@JonathanWinbush]

I havent seen an noise option but hopefully they update it in 5.5

[@thehomedepothouseplant9986]

whatuppppp my boy WINBUSHHHHHH

[@JonathanWinbush]

What up homie!!!! 🤙🏿

[@manmachinemusic]

Great feature but when I zoom in my scene I lose the fog. Local fog volumes is enabled in the settings. It's not until I type this in the command field at the bottom when it becomes visible. r.LocalFogVolume.GlobalStartDistance 20 Am I missing something here? Thanks🖥
