Hello. I came across these two Environment Effects behavior today. Not sure if it is by design so I wanted to share.

When a Ground Transparency is applied (even at a 1% transparency), some white lines can be seen across the globe at certain latitudes. The latitudes of the white lines depend on the altitude of the camera.

When a Horizon Only atmosphere is used, the Terrain Exaggeration will influence the atmosphere.

Thank you !

Hello, @GeoffroyRicher-Lalonde .

Thank you for providing us with your valuable feedback.
For the white gaps in the underground mode, we have already identified this issue and have been working hard to solve it. The progress is underway.

Regarding the issue of exaggerated terrain, it is currently designed this way. When we increase the elevation exaggeration value, the outer halo in the Horizon Only mode will also increase accordingly. You can achieve a more desirable effect by adjusting the atmosphere mode to None or Realistic. Additionally, we will also try to optimize the effect here. Thank you for your input, and we will make sure users see the improvements as soon as possible.

Warmly,

Bing'An
