Dreadfog (Evelite - Scary Edition)

Dreadfog turns your world into a dense, claustrophobic nightmare. Built on top of the Evelite pipeline, it strips out vibrant lighting and cozy ambiances in favor of choking low-altitude fog, crushed ambient light, and pitch-black nights.

Features & Visuals

• Suffocating Fog: A dense layer of low-hanging volumetric mist hugs the terrain, drastically cutting visibility and keeping you on edge.
• Pitch-Black Darkness: Ambient lighting is crushed. Underground caverns and nights are truly dark—torches, lanterns, and held lights are your only lifeline.
• Bleak Color Grading: Stripped of warm, cozy tones in favor of a cold, desaturated, high-contrast palette.
• Eerie Camera & Lighting: High-contrast dynamic shadows paired with subtle depth of field blur and dim celestial lighting.
• Distant Horizons Ready: Fully compatible with Distant Horizons LOD terrain rendering, keeping vast misty horizons smooth and visually cohesive.
