I use a similar technique for my interiors, although I use it to give a nice hazy, smoky look to the interior. I combine this with very transparent smoke/dust sprites in certain places, as well as light halos. In well lit interiors, it works wonders and is a nice "low tech" way to make the levels look nicer. Since, it is so dark, perhaps try using a low global ambient value combined with a higher radius/low color values on the dynamic lights.

But so far I really like it. It reminds me a lot on Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophethy (One of my two favourite games^^) and Vampire the Mascerade: Bloodlines becauseof it�s darkness and the menu design and so on. The atmosphere is absolutly great. Very nice done. Lite-C Tut. 1 Lite-C Tut. 2 Lite-C Tut. 3 (en) Shader Tutorial (ger) http://www.slindev.com

I've been inspired a lot just by those two titles Fahrenheit and Vampire Bloodlines since I've played both of them. Obviously there is still a lot that needs to be improved as this is a low budget project. Pietro Nifos� >> digital artist / game developer My Personal Portfolio
