anyway we are going to try to assign that value to everything included in the fog volume... let's see what happens.

Hi, new issue:
This is what i get from this scene with volumetrics turned off:
water no volume_1.jpg

and this is what i get wen i turn volumetrics on, water has gone:
water and volume_1.jpg
it's a volume priority issue?

if we have the fog volume surrounding the scene set as interior volume, the walls as exterior volume, and the water as interior volume, which are the priorities which we have to assign to each volume?
We tried with fog volume set as priority 0, the walls as priority 0, and the water as 1 but the result is the same...


here the luxcore scene

Naturally, solids have higher priority than fluids, which have higher priority than gases.

BTW
here's quick animation of camera transition from outside into fog

It seems that all volumes in your scene are defined with the same ior = 1.5, so no difference between fog and water...

Code: Select all

scene.volumes.envVolume.ior = "1.5"

here is a tree with fog off:
treeno_1.jpg

and here we have a very thin fog, about 10km visibility
treeyes_1.jpg

why the shading of the tree shows up so differently?

tomorrow morning i can upload the luxcore scene.

air now is set to ior 1
