    PNGs as objects with transparency/alpha are not affected by fog which makes billboards and similar effects useless when there is fog.

    Any suggestions or is there a fix in the works for this bug?

    Can you post a screenshot of an example? I'm using transparent pngs and have no problems. Also, is this a PC/Mac or laptop you are using.

    Image attached.

    Two of the trees are billboards and the others are actual 3d objects. You can see that the fog is affecting the 3d objects and the billboards are much brighter and are not affected by the fog. Im using a MAC and Buildbox 3.2.1

    Actually. If you set the png file to alpha test, this might work:)

    I've reached out to buildbox support and still haven't received any insight other than it should work.
