Black Shadows and ZFog (Vanilla Transparency)

Description
This mod simply renames and overrides the current ZFog and shadow graphics (wall and ramp) and makes them black instead of blue. It is like my other ZFog mods except It updates the wall and ramp shadows and maintains vanilla transparency.

Note, It does not update the blue ramp overlay so there is still some blue on ramps themselves, but it DOES overwrite the ramp shadows so the shadows at the bottom of ramps are made black. This is an aesthetic choice. Its very easy to update but I chose not to.

The main difference between this and my other ZFog mods is:

1. It also Makes wall and ramp shadows black
2. It doesn't change vanilla transparency


If you don't like the vanilla transparency, try my other Black ZFog mod (that one also doesn't update the shadows)

If you want the shadows but also want increased ZFog transparency try the other version of this mod!

Thank you to Munashe who made the Reduce Z-Level Fog Mod which inspired me to make this and my other ZFog mods.

Essentially. Not sure if it works now after a couple years. Might still work.

It's merge "Reduced Z-level fog" and "Black Z-level fog"?

I find it strange that this mod isn't more widely used. It's simple, yet it's one of my favorite mods for DF. And I find this version specifically most pleasing to use.
