Khas Advanced Fog v3.0

[Khas]

Khas Advanced Fog​

Introduction
This is one of my graphics enhancement plugins for RPG Maker MV! The fog on this script is procedurally generated, completely processed by your graphics card with GLSL shaders.

Current version highlights
Here's the latest update for Advanced Fog! I've implemented new features and solved some important problems. The full list of changes is below:
* Added "Transfer Reset" parameter
* Added "Auto Battle Fog" parameter
* Added colored fog
* Fixed bug "pixi cannot read property 'location' of undefined"
* Fixed bug with uppercase OFF in [fog OFF]

Attention
This plugin requires WebGL. There’s no way around this.
Old save files will not work correctly with this plugin.

Features

Comes with 3 fogs. You can easily add more

@Solis you need to turn off my Advanced Graphics plugin. Use only KhasCore, KhasGraphics and KhasFog, in that order

 

[Solis]

Okay, thanks!

@Khas

That solved my issue. I guess the only thing I'm disliking about this plugin in so far is that I'm required to turn it on and off during map switches. Then, sometimes, a little debugger even shows up which is annoying to close. (even though nothing happened).

Is there a way I can get the fog only to show up if the note tag is on the map?

I want to use it to ways.

With Rain or after rain
or on certain maps, always.

Hey dude! is there any chance that I can make the fogs density even lower? would be sick if you added a feature from your lighting plugin [ambient_light 75] <<< but also do this for fog!? thanks pal.

 

[Meh]

I just copied and pasted the events and comments into my game from the demo and they all worked fine.
Try that to see if it works. Wish you luck.

[Solis]

I figured it out thanks to Khas. Thanks though!

 

[Khas]

@Solis About this "Is there a way I can get the fog only to show up if the note tag is on the map?"
I'll add something to allow more control and flexibility on the next version

@SoSick. You can create custom fogs! There's instructions on the plugin on how to do it

 

[Meh]

I made a little video tutorial that shows how to make custom fogs if anyone is interested.
I used atom to edit the code, but notepad++ or visual Studio would be ok too and wasn't hard at all.


@Khas
I'd like to know if there's anyway I could only have the fog active across half of the screen please? So it'll look like low laying fog.

 

[Khas]

@Meh thanks for making a tutorial!

This is not possible yet. I intend to add masking on the next version, so you could do something like this

 

[Meh]

Your very welcome, gives you more time to work on improving this already great plugin

Cool, it'll keep a look out for the next version and will post a screen shot of the hoard approaching through the mist. Man I can already see it!

Hi, I Do like the KhasAdvancedFog.js but I found a problem. It works fine in the development computer but in a non development environment I get "TypeError"\n"Cannot read property 'location' of undefined". The OS did not matter. If fog was turned on it would crash. I tried ten different computers with different OS. If the development environment was not there, it would crash. Here is a pic of the crash I shrunk to 800x473. Can you help me?

 

[Khas]

@Fred Ransom can you access the console (by pressing F8 or F9, I think) in this version? Unfortunately I can't get much information from the screenshot.

 

[Solis]

@Khas thanks a bunch! Ill be waiting

Hi, I tried to get CONSOLE To work outside of the development environment. I use the YEP_CoreEngine.js to bring it up in the
windows7 system I Have. I have three WIN7 Boot drives, Three LINUX boot drives, One freshly made WIN10 System. Note I had an updated
WIN7 to WIN10 but when I tried to run it had deactivated itself. I have a 500Gb FAT32 on my Blacx Theraltake backup drive to transfer files
between WIN7 and WIN10 system. The GOOD NEWS IS that the Fresh copy of WIN10 the Test6 game that I Made works.
http://www.game.poweroc.com/Test6/www/index.html
This Game was Designed to work in android but like Linux it will NOT and in some WIN7 systems. To check this out I Downloaded
the New Steam RPGMaker MV into One of my Linux Boot drives. Even with the New UbuntuMATE 17.04.2 the program crashes when I
turn on the fog in a Linux system. I then made a New Game, one without any plugins except the YEP and Starter ones.
http://www.game.poweroc.com/Test7/www/index.html
This One works in all system and OS's and my Pixi7 android device. These are basic games, no thrills.
Check them out. if Test6 works, that system will work with your fog.
Test7 is to compare with Test6. It is to check your system with RPGMV games. If Test7 runs you can run RPGMaker MV Games.
Thank you for your help on this matter. I am also a patron of your on *******.

 

[Fred Ransom]

I got the console shot.

 

[Khas]

@Fred Ransom thank you for the detailed response. I have windows 10 here and your tests run perfectly fine. I'll do some searches and see if I can find what the problem is.

Could you run both tests on your systems, press F2 and check if it's displaying "WebGL Mode" on the top left corner of the screen?

 

[Fred Ransom]

Yes, Both Test6 and Test7 in all OSs are running in WebGL Mode.

 

[Skurge]

What do you think is the easiest method to allow battle fog to operate if the battle begins from a fogy map? I don't want to have battles run off the plugin commands if they are present on a map or not prior to the fight.

I also noticed the fog seems quite dense even when set on rare since the changes you made with these new plugins, is there a way we can alter the fog density further?

 

[Gonor]

Hey there,
is there a way to change to fog's color? I tried tinting the screen but this appears to happen on a different layer.

So long.
Gonor
