Hi everyone,

I have been playing around with the simple 3d commands, does fog effect on cameras speed up game rendering or the opposite?

As far as I'm aware camera fog should slow down rendering, due to the extra workload for the GPU. The slowdown should be virtually unnoticeable, though.

Where it could speed things up, is if it allows you to set a closer far camera clipping point by using the fog to mask the point where the clipping occurs.
