Just did a quick test mission.

Not sure if this was intentional or not but there seems to be an issue with the water surface reflection when viewed at a certain height. The water goes from normal to a "liquid metal" type of reflection.


Normal


Camera raised just a bit more


Oversaturated metallic reflection

Maybe its just my mod soup? Im running Azs and Ails sky/moon/light mods and have just let the Environment MOD 1.0 override everything using JSGME. Other than that weird anomaly, everything else looks good.

I noticed the same. The water actually looked horrible at Wilhelmshaven in winterstime. It also behaved kinda strange... the u-boat were rolling and bouncing almost hitting the roof. And there was no storm. I removed it for now.

HI there..... have just done a patrol with the new mod and some things are great - night is dark but changes with the moon light and is never too dark.

BUT

for a long time in the North sea to the east of England the sea was almost Black in colour...... during day time! Something not quite right there lol

Anyone else seen this yet lol ?

Also I sailed around ALL of Scotland and half of England and the wind never changed from 0 mps. hmmmm.....

I tried it out and loaded a saved game which at the time its night with no moon. Using the camera at high angles the water still turns to a 'liquid metal' color.

Do you like the sun more brightly or sun is dark? And then climbed a high point to see the water?

At least when run my SH5, has no 'liquid metal'.Of course, I will focus on in future versions of this problem, now I need to rest, tired.

I having also the metal water problem raising the camera plus various graphic glitches in underwater refractions/reflections.
Hope you can fix it.

Cheers.

I loaded the two parts up via jsgme and always get a ctd at the loading screen- has anyone else had this?
After disabling the mods again, it loads ok.

Will try another download and do it again.

What should the final file sizes unzipped be in size?

I assume you install part one and then part 2?

Thanks and cant wait to try it.
