I noticed that one of the new features in Orbiter 2009 is distance haze. It looks really great but I think there could be more done with it like making it different for each planet. Venus and Titan and places like that should have lots and lots of haze everywhere. I lack the programming skills to implement this but perhaps this could be a new feature of Orbiter 2010.
 
This can be done via planet config files. (AtmFogParam and AtmFogColor entries). No programming skills required.
 
AtmFogParam has three entries:
Code:
AtmFogParam = <fog_dens_0> <fog_dens_ref> <fog_alt_ref>
where <fog_dens_0> is the fog density at ground level
<fog_dens_ref> is the fog density at reference altitude
<fog_alt_ref> is the reference altitude [m]

Code:
AtmFogColor = <R> <G> <B>
is a colour specification in the usual RGB format.

Just experiment with the values and check the effect.
 
how do i get orbiter 2009 or 2010
Stop.
