Head hurts, but next HAZE update will also feature support for orthographic cameras 👀
Get ready to bring in some more atmosphere to your cool isometric dioramas 🌫

Here's how HAZE contributes to the overall lighting and colors of the scene ✨
It helps to have a solid base of lighting before using it, as relying on it from the very start can make it more difficult to gauge the proper values

Another excuse to play around with lighting and HAZE ⛩🌫
Put together with some megascans, some MTree meshes and simple models in Unity URP ✨
HAZE isn't exclusively for spooky stuff, but it does help with the eerie atmosphere 👀

Last one, I swear, I was just fighting Unity on this for a little while, so I'm so very relieved

Oh and main light cookies were hella broken before, but I only just found out 😅
So this will also be fixed in HAZE 1.1.2 ✨

I got a bit too excited to share this and ignored how intense that banding looks with subtractive density
So a couple of days of head scratching (and banging) later, I figured a way to make it much smoother ✨

Y'know what, I won't be assuming anything; it'll support vertical aspect ratios as well and give you the option to upscale or downscale the froxel buffer to match the aspect ratio.

Another thing coming in the next update: Optionally retain the aspect ratio on the froxel buffer
This squares up the froxels in the X and Y and can help a bit with some artifacting in higher density areas.
It.. might not be too visible unless you open up the screenshots and go back and forth 😅

Apart from some bug fixes and some other stuff, next HAZE version will feature a subtractive mode for density volumes, using their own density to carve away at the existing fog 🌫
Combined with the previous update that means you can have point lights dissolving the fog! 💡

Yaay, HAZE has enough reviews to show the rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Have you also tried out HAZE? Would love to hear what you think about it (either here or in a review) :D

There are so many strong nominees for the category, but it would be really awesome if you could vote for our beautiful game ✨

quick proof of concept, seems to work well; there is some banding due to the low depth slice resolution, but it shouldn't be too visible with some more practical use cases (or with increased depth slices/reduced max range)
will explore further 👀

Obvs this still works with shadow casting and both the color contribution and density boost can still be controlled via the light color alpha value ✨

Right now, HAZE supports color contribution from additional lights, but there has to be underlying fog to make them show up
In the next update (coming soon), global and local fog will have an option to boost density using secondary light attenuation, so you can have just light beams with no fog✨

🌫HAZE🌫 version 1.1.0 just got released!
And it's ✨still 10% off!✨
Most important addition:
💡 Per-light contribution control using the alpha value of the light's color!
Now you can select which secondary lights contribute to the fog and which are just for the environment ✨

Since we're still in spooky month, it's worth mentioning that HAZE is ideal for dark and atmospheric scenes 🌫
Here's a quick recreation of a Silent Hill f level with just a handful of assets and a good does of 🌫HAZE🌫

This is just Unity URP, some megascans/free assets, default post-processing and a bunch of HAZE to enhance the lighting ✨
Imagine what YOU can do with custom meshes, some artistic vision and more than ~2 hours

Oof, they really went hard with the visuals in Hellblade II
I might be spending too much time on photo mode tbh 😅
Open those up, they're *wide*
(no spoilers, they're all fairly early in the game)
