I'm rendering regions in MR and if i set the camera to "furthest visible depth" it obviously changes from one region to a next. Is the only option to render the whole frame as one depth pass??

you can use custom shaders.or ramps..

i use fog and maya soft

just active maya soft renderer and apply fog and change the settings as you see fit and then render(dont' forget the AA settings)...i saw a tut somewhere about this way better than my description...just do a search and you will find a thread about that.

hope that helps.
