I need Fog Tiles

search the forum a bit dude, there is more then one topic here comtaining cloud tiles if that's what you need. If that's not what your looking for you really should be a bit clearer in your posts, "fog" can be alot of things, and ZC doesn't allow alpha blending so you can't really get fog effects like in SoM or something...

The best looking, easiest to make fog tiles I could come up with are made like this. Make a rounded rectangle that spans three tiles horizontally out of solid grey or dark blue. Then make a second identical rectangle, only two spaces larger (or smaller; the important thing is that it is a different size). Then open each tile, and delete EVERY OTHER PIXEL. This ensures you can see Link under the fog. Then set up animation so the fog clouds pulsate, and then pop'em on a higher layer.

Make sure to put them down in groups, and dont draw perfectly square cloud formations.

Hmmm... I got a much simpler idea... just breathe on your monitor a few times.... mmmmm fog....
