“Sharing is caring”
Description
Realistic Fog FX features 3 types of fog effect prefabs in two styles which can easily be dragged & dropped into your scene.
✅ Built-in ✅ URP ✅ HDRP
WebGL Demo (Built-in)
The custom shader lets the fog blend in with the environment, as well as fades out the billboards slowly depending on the camera distance to avoid billboard textures popping in/out.
The effect can be scaled through by changing the Start Size and Radius in the particle system. The fog color is easily tinted via Vertex Color in the particle systems, or directly via the custom shader.
The asset also includes a bonus dust particle system, smoke puff effect and a smoke trail effect.

Custom shader:
With Soft Particles or Depth Texture (depending on SRP) enabled in your project, the custom shader lets you fade particles towards geometry such as walls and floors in your scene.
The shader also allows you to fade the billoards out as the Camera moves through them to avoid clipping artifacts (billboards popping in).
The custom shader also allows particles to fade properly with Scene Fog (in Lighting settings).
