Are you serious? :hmm:
Gee, thanks!

But no, sorry, it won't work in SH4.

A new version of the Ubermod???

Uber Uber thank you.

BTW, my impression was that you weren't going to fix that!

Well, what's left to say?........................ just

.

P.S. Is it possible to include with the upcoming version the updated scene.dat and the alternate camera.dat as optional features of the Ubermod?

regards,
tomfon

The new version won't fix it completely but it will reduce it a bit so you see it less often.

2.4.3 will have a new scene.dat which includes the changes released in the 'minor updates' (in other words yes it will be included but it won't be optional!)

The cameras.dat will also be included, and that will probably be optional cos I know not everyone likes the zoomed-in cameras. Out of curiosity, do you prefer the updated cameras.dat to the "normal" cameras.dat?

tomfon · 09-26-08, 02:58 PM

I have tried the updated cameras.dat and yes you could say it
adds to the immersion thing. This change you made in the camera.dat
brought to my attention your way of understanding immersion but to tell the
truth and IMO of course i prefer something "simpler" i.e. i like the original view.
The updated version makes me feel as if i'm in the cockpit of a fighter airplane.

I'm sorry, my intention is not to offend you, it just happens to have a different taste.

I won't disagree if you argue that i like "cinematic" views (and in fact this might
be the case here) but that's the way i understand "immersion".

EDIT: Will you make an Ubermod version for SHIV?

2nd EDIT: OK this is a joke.

Not at all offended, I was just curious.

Changes in this version:

The water reflections have been tweaked yet again.
The morning/afternoon sun reflection has been improved.
After playing my career with the new reflections for a while I've found I like them way better than the previous reflections, so I ditched the 'Remove All Object Reflections' mod and replaced it with a new mod which fixes the noticably-broken ship reflections in GWX 2.1 (Large Merchant and Empire-Type Freighter). Many harbour reflections are still broken/missing but fixing those would be a huge task so I won't bother doing that, but if I noice more broken ship reflections I will fix them and add the fixes to this mod. I imagine it's worth mentioning that a nice side-effect of this change is a massively reduced download size (OLC Ubermod v2.4.3 is only 21Mb).
The 'Adjusted Crew Skins' mod now removes medals and ranks from the crew skins (partly cos it looks better that way IMO, but mostly because the medals and ranks suffer the "glow in the dark" problem).
Fixed some "glow in the dark" particles.
Fixed a typo on the compass in OLC GUI Special (bearing '205' now reads '205' not '025').
Updated the documentation - PLEASE READ THE NEW README FOR UPDATED INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.

I would like to thank:
privateer for his invaluable help with reflections.
Philip_Thomsen for throwing wrenches at me.

Oh man... I've downloaded yesterday a 180mb 2.4.2 ubermod... took me 3 hours...

Now I have this 21mb file update, which replaces that other one......
