DB pro 7.7 rc7 beta on windows xp service pack 3
There is a bug with backdrop visibility while using fog.
It happens specifically with textured backdrops and not with colored.
The fog completely disappears the backdrop image.
The backdrop was visible through fog in upgrade 7.5
The issue appeared in betas after official 7.5 update and i know its present in rc6 and rc7.
A project outlining the problem is included with the post
here is the source code by its self
