Introduction

What is Dynamic Fog & Mist 2?

Dynamic Fog & Mist 2 is a fast, flexible fog package for Unity's Built-in Render Pipeline. It adds live, animated fog, mist, and sky haze to your scenes through a full-screen image effect, custom fog materials, or a dedicated fog-of-war prefab.

The asset ships with 7 fog shader variants (from desktop quality to ultra-light mobile), 15 fog materials with integrated shaders, and Post-Processing Stack v2 extensions so you can plug the effect directly into Unity's post-processing pipeline.

Key Features

Fog Rendering

• 7 shader variants — Desktop (dual-noise, volumetric), Mobile (single-noise, no-haze, simplified, basic), and Orthogonal modes.
• Sky Haze — atmospheric haze layer with independent color, speed, and opacity controls.
• Gradient fog — two color selectors for artistic fog gradients.
• Built-in presets — Clear, Mist, Windy Mist, Ground Fog, Fog, Heavy Fog, Sand Storm, and Custom.

Fog of War

• Image-effect mode — clear circular or rectangular fog areas via scripting.
• Dedicated prefab — optimized mesh-based fog of war for top-down perspectives (no image effect overhead).
• Fog-of-war holes — place hole objects in the hierarchy for static clearings.

Integration Options

• Camera script — add DynamicFog or DynamicFogExclusive to the camera.
• Post-Processing Stack v2 — use as a pluggable volume effect (requires importing the included package).
• Custom fog materials — per-object fog via specialized shaders (fastest on mobile).

VR & Platform Support

• VR ready — full support for Single Pass Stereo Rendering (Oculus, OpenVR).
• Cross-platform — desktop, mobile (iOS/Android), WebGL, and consoles.

Requirements

Next Steps

• Quick Start — get fog running in your scene in under 5 minutes.
• Fog Effect Types — understand the 7 shader variants and when to use each one.
• Scripting Reference — control fog at runtime via C#.
