Maybe a very little, but NEVER as much as your picture show.

What your picture show, if it is a day without fog, it is maybe valid for Shanghai or Pekin with the pollution, but it will NEVER be like that actually, on the French coast line, as you pretend. But, of course, all this is also a matter of taste !!!

W_clear, in French we say "Sometimes, better is worst than good". This mean, that sometimes, when you want to make it always better and better, you start to get the contrary.

To my taste, it is what start to happen with your last 4.9 version. Personnaly, I have reversed foam to your previous version state by removing your new tweakings.

Actually, I search how to make a sunny day a REAL sunny day. Can-you tell me what should I change ?

ACSoft, you're right. The air on the North Sea and Atlantic is clear (= transparent) on a clear day (not fuzzy). Back in WW2 days there was also much less pollution in the air than today in certain high populated, heavy industry areas. However, reality/realism is NOT a matter of taste, it either is or it is not, like a woman cannot be a little bit pregnant.

Pollution asides, the french coastal line doesn´t look like that today. Let alone in 1940. I am not from France, but a european whom visits France from time to time (have relatives in Dunkerque mind you) so i know what i speaking about.

w_clear,

As much as i enjoy your mod (it truly is fantastic) it doesn´t look like that anywhere in Europe.

Hiya's,

To chill things out a bit, this mod has so many variables it simply cannot suit everyones taste, cloud cover/time of day/thickness and colour of clouds/air density/water volume in clouds etc etc the variables can be endless when applied

eg: The sizing of the moon sun etc has only one definate answer, someone makes a mod for these and really that's that, it's done finished fin the end

If you like this mod then use it, if not obviously don't use it

Myself, it beats stock so i use it, but it's a mod that most will disagree with as so much is variable

Happy Christmas

To bad this is the last update. Thanks for your hard work W_Clear

[robbythesub]

Thanks for all your efforts w_clear I have enjoyed them very much and love the light fog mod which is very realistic.
I will continue to use your v 5.0.

Hope you will change your mnd and continue to develop the graphics in the game.

This mod conflicts with FX_Update_0_0_9_ByTheDarkWraith.
1) I have to activate this enviromental mod first and overwrite FX_Update_0_0_9_ByTheDarkWraith mod?

or

2) FX_Update_0_0_9_ByTheDarkWraith mod first and then this Enviromental mod?

Thank you.

C:\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\Environment 4.5 MOD\data\Textures\TNormal\tex\expl_hallo.dds
&
C:\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\Environment 4.5 MOD\data\Textures\TNormal\tex\expl_hallo_add.dds

That got rid of the artifact but left everything else intact.

I hope this helps.

Cheers W_clear.

For all the hard work you put into this mod, as well as being one of the leading modders keeping SH5 alive.

Kudos to you, and I hope that many of these insolent little whelps who put down your work is not the reason this is the last.

To you whelps: Shut up or Put up. If you think you can do better, more realistic, etc. Then do it. The modding tools are all there.

Cheers and happy holidays!

Everyone knows how to criticize - do not need much skill. You know how it should be? Then take and make. Otherwise - close your mouth!
And best of all you!

W_clear
Thank you for your hard work!

What you maybe forget to add is:

"... so that, all the hypocritical and obsequious profiteers, can continue to take and take and always take !!!"

Merry Christmas !

I wanted to say I said. W_Clear doing mod, it does not always work properly, it corrects the error.
I forgot to add this: "Do not mistake the one who does not do anything."
Merry Christmas!

Then you have to ask TheDarkWraith.
