FogVisualOnly

A BepInEx plugin for PEAK that removes fog visuals to boost FPS while preserving fog damage.

Features

• Remove atmospheric fog, rising sphere fog, particles, plane, animations, shadows, VFX, sounds, colliders
• Fog toggle with save/restore snapshot — FOG: OFF (green) = fog disabled, FOG: ON (red) = fog enabled
• In-game floating settings window (F3 to open/close)
• Full HSV accent color picker with hex input
• Presets: Max FPS, Balanced, SphereOnly
• Adjustable window opacity, text scale, corner radius, halo effect, fullscreen darken
• Scroll wheel on sliders for fine-tuning
• Input fields with focus highlight and hover feedback
• Fog damage is always active regardless of visuals — fully safe with vanilla players online

Installation

1. Install BepInEx into your PEAK game
2. Copy FogVisualOnly.dll to BepInEx/plugins/
3. Launch the game

Usage

• Press F3 to open/close the settings window
• Drag the title bar to reposition the window
• Scroll wheel over sliders for fine adjustment
• Text fields highlight on hover and focus for clear visual feedback
• Toggle fog on/off with the large button at the top
• Use presets for quick configurations
• All settings are saved to config automatically

Compatibility

• Conflicts with CoddingCat-FogRemover — disable that mod first
• Fully safe with vanilla players online (local visual only)
• Uses MaterialPropertyBlock — no material cloning

Changelog

v2.0.0

Basically Full rework — cleaner internals, better performance, polished UI and maybe new bugs.

Core

• Split dirty flag: scene rescan (OnSceneLoaded) vs value-only apply (sliders, toggles, presets) — dragging sliders no longer triggers a full object cache rebuild
• Sphere subtree classification — all descendants of FogSphereSystem registered, not just renderer owners (animators/colliders/particles on child objects now properly tracked)
• _BaseColor support — URP/HDRP fog materials now respect opacity sliders
• ParticleSystem caching — emission paused on apply, resumed on restore
• Sound/collider toggles fully wired to SettingChanged
• UnpatchSelf() on unload — Harmony patches cleaned up on destroy

UI

• Tabs renamed FOG / SETTINGS with procedural 22px gear icon
• Glass-style tab outlines with wobbly asymmetric radii and glow animation
• Tabs are content-hugging (measured once via CalcSize, not full-width)
• 10px breathing room under tab row
• Scrollbar thumb reworked — proper pill shape (radius 3, not ellipse)
• Slider label row breathing room (30px height, 6px left padding)
• Slider drag identity via object reference, not rect equality
• Window position persists across sessions (clamped on-screen)
• OnApplicationFocus insurance — clears drag state on alt-tab

Bug Report

• Reads real version from BepInPlugin attribute (not hardcoded)
• Log capture reads while game holds file open, multiple path fallbacks
• Tail-reads last 8KB, code-fence sanitization
• Empty submit validation (title or description required)
• GitHub checkbox with GL-drawn tick/X marks

Removals

• Accent color system fully removed (config entry, HSV picker, SanitizeAccent, RefreshAccent)
• Subheadings are plain white bold + divider line
• Dead code deleted (unused styles, duplicate helpers, stale fields)

Safety

• Global skin restore on menu close + OnDestroy
• All button styles have active states (no 1-frame flash)
• NaN/Inf accent sanitizer
• Drag state reset on open AND close (prevents softlocks)
• Reset tab + activeDrag + keyboard focus on menu open
