MLF, can you please test the following:

Tourelle de La Plate v12 - Patch 8

Two versions included:

Patch 8a:

- Particles, wave height ≥ 1m: 'shortened' vertical spray particles and horizontal splash particles used in the same quantity
  • half the quantity of vertical spray particles than used in patch 5 (not used in patch 6)
  • half the quantity of horizontal splash particles than used in patch 6 (not used in patch 5)

- Particles, wave height ≥ 2m: unchanged

Patch 8b:

- Particles, wave height ≥ 1m:
  • from no vertical spray particles to half the quantity used in patch 5 (this is random: the higher wave height, the higher the chance that some spray particles will spawn)
  • same quantity of horizontal splash particles as used in patch 6

- Particles, wave height ≥ 2m: unchanged

I recommend you to test both versions after setting wind speed of the test mission to 15 m/s, and to reload the mission several times (as it seems that sea conditions are slightly diffrent every time a single mission is loaded).

Thanks to Kendras' intuition, the stuttering should be gone for good with no need of giving up the crashing wave sound effect
