Default Best Water for SH3

I have a double installation of SH3 (LSH3 V5 and GWX, plus diverse additional mods). I´m searching for the best water...The MEP water - in stormy weather - is bluish, I don´t like it...The best option I´ve tried is SH5 Water for SH3. Is there a better water environment for SH3?

Many thanks!

My only problems with the SH5 water are that when it's very still and calm it looks quite poor, and that underwater it's a very, very rich blue. The sky and cloud textures are wonderful, though.

Hi !

Take a look at the water that comes with WAC 4.1, here:

http://hansolo78.2page.de/ Then go to "Features II" on the left side and scroll down to "Realistischer Atlantik" (in english "Realistic Atlantic) !!!

Best regards,
Magic

Decided to try this SH5 water myself. Its disgusting. It was too blue underwater, but I have to disagree with you when you say it looks bad when its calm; I thought it was fine, when its stormy though, its too bright if you know what I mean.

The SH5 water, with clouds in the sky, makes some brown reflections on the water I don´t like. I think a problem of the graphic card (ATI RADEON) I have, but this reflections are very wrong...

I try now the Thomsem Waters 4.1, looks great but with some excesive bright; I think is better than the MEP (I don´t like the bluish bad weather water of MEP).

Regards.
