    Can't Get Rid of Fog in Edit In Game

    in The Sims 3 Game Tools
    For some reason, I'm suddenly getting the problem where I take my world into Edit In Game and there is a white fog that I can't see through at the View Map/Edit Town level. I've been working on this world for a while, but this is the first time I've experienced it. I read that if I put the LOD bar in camera settings all the way to the right, it will fix it. I've tried this, saved, then loaded in Edit In Game on three occasions with no success. The thing is that when I leave Edit In Game and return to CAW, the LOD setting is back to default (one from the left). Does anyone know how I could fix this?

      Hi,

      It's usually caused when you enter EIG with the camera view too high from ground level.

      Save/Quit in EIG then lower the camera to ground level and try EIG again. Or maybe restarting CAW then keep the camera view very low and start EIG.

      Good luck :)

      Thank you for the reply. I've just done your suggestion, but it didn't help. I opened CAW, set the LOD to the right, and entered Edit In Game. Once I got into Edit In Game, the fog was not there because it was zoomed close (as usual), but when I went to Map View and then Edit Town, the white fog was there and I could not see anything.

      Do you have any other suggestions? Do you know if the problem may be my world or CAW? Again, thank you for the reply.

      I have the exact same problem, i used to have the CAW fog emitter in my world, but even after removing this, and the LOD edit.. plus the suggestion above here.. even removed custom fog.. i still cant see a single thing at all. It doesn't even disappear when at the lowest distance, any way i turn the camera there's a fog as if you are in a cloud.

      Hey guys I also had this exact problem and did what was suggested in this post

      Once done the Fog was gone when I went back into CAW and EIG. It still works fine now and I have not had the issue since so I suggest you try it.

      I've had the same problem for ages!, Had to cancel my 'Sim-erising of Europe' because of it :(

      This worked for me

      In CAW:
      1. Go to view tab and select time of day
      2. Change cloudiness level over in the window that pops up to the right
      3. Save world
      4. Close CAW
      5. Restart CAW for changes to apply

      Once you re-open edit in game mode problem should be fixed

      To fix this, I restored my settings under game options.
