Hiya:

Just a quick question? Anyone know how big the texture size is for the fog in the sim? I'm not sure if it is just me, but it takes forever to load and for the first minute or so whenver I enter the sim I am surrounded by grey squares waiting for the texture to load.

Just wondering...

I thought it was clouds rather than fog?!

I usually turn off render clouds in the debug menu unless i want them for atmosphere, photos etc

So do I (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+-).

One of the more annoying "features" IMO, given that my plot of land (and the entire city intra muros, for that matter) is fairly high up.

I find this very annoying myself. Is it possible to lower the entire sim? Would that make the clouds/fog go away?

Some of us love the "fog" ;)

One can always turn it off...

Moving the whole sim up and down is not easy...

I do love the clouds, fog, or whatnot, they just seem to take forever to load for me :p

I forgot about turning them off in debug though. I might have to do that for when I am in a hurry.

Thanks!

Couldn't get it to work last time...

To activate the Debug menu hold down the Ctrl and Alt buttons and tap the d key.

Then click Debug, then Rendering.. Types... Clouds....
