[terrapin]

Again a BEAUTIFUL gfx mod. Thanks!:up:

[CaptainCox]

Typo...fixed...my bad ;)

[donut]

THXS.,been waiting for this. Give some thought to beam me home Scotty.:up:

[AVGWarhawk]

Very cool :up: You work wonders with the textures and things. Keep it up!

[CaptainCox]

I must add this. I have been reading a lot of stuff in the SH3 modding forum today. There are/is/was some guys there, that would flip SH4 over and backwards before I could say Hexedi. "flip".or. I really hope more of these guys will join sooner then later (some already have but...)

[MaxT.dk]

Good work as always! :up:

I've been waiting for too long to see the appearance of this mod. One of the best improvement so far, CC, just as the smaller plants. The seabed looks much more real now. In the name of the SS community, a big thank you. :cool:

[Dodger01]

Oh thank God... I was SO tired of running into those things... and then THROUGH them. :up:

[MONOLITH]

Excellent Capt'n. Thanks.

I knew this wasn't long off after the smaller plants fix. :up:

[Jmack]

there you go ... much better

[NefariousKoel]

Excellent job Cappie.:up:

[MONOLITH]

Now when I check the "depth below Keel", it doesn't appear that there's a 54' tall rock next to me. :p

Thanks again CC....

[ReallyDedPoet]

Just fired this up in game, looks good. Sea floor is pretty much taken care of now:up:

[TheBrauerHour]

Danke Herr Kaleun! :rock:

[Jungman]

:cool: Much better looking seabed realistic. Amazing you guys figured out those Hex textures.

[Uber Gruber]

Now thats just perfect, reminds me of my scuba days....sigh.

Thanks mate!:up:

[Beery]

Great mod CaptainCox!

Does this adjust the size of the plants on the sea floor too? It looks as if it does but I'm not sure. If not can someone point me to a mod that does so?

[Uber Gruber]

This kelp one by Zuyax (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/member.php?u=210423) looks good

And of course there's Captain Cox's original at http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=114029

[Fabrice]

Thanks a lot, a must have :up:

Nope this just shrinks the rocks to about 40% of the orig. In those pics I had my "Smaller Sea-plants Medium" mod activated. One could also tweak the sea-plants 3D models like I did with the rocks, but as the simple graphic tweak does sort of the same job i would leave it at that.

Cheers for the links Uber Gruber!

Okay thanks. I'll probably use this and the 'Smaller sea plants medium' mod then. Great stuff!

[Snacko]

Great Mod Captain! I always hated those gigantic rocks that seemed to be every frickin where! It looks much more realistic!

Now all we need is some fishies!

[Snacko]

Where can I find the Smaller Sea-plants Medium?

I looked in the Mod's List thread, and also did a search and found nothing for: Smaller Sea plants

EDIT:
Never Mind, I found them here:

:rock:

[Weather-guesser]

Great one! I was so sick of going through the rocks in the shallows :yep:

[Steel_Tomb]

I cant DL the mod from the URL, it keeps coming up with an error. Anyone else having problems?

Btw this is good stuff! Always thought it was strange having rocks half the size of your sub lol.

[CaptainCox]

Hmmm, well works here.
I will upload it to a alternative site anyway. 2min!
EDIT! I see what you mean now, I get an error when i start the DL.
Ok will upload again.
EDIT! Something seems to be up with filefront. I get that error randomly on other files, sometimes error sometimes not :hmm:

Uploading to another site now.

[STEED]

Great I may stand a little better chance on my photo missions, I was getting a little fed up pranging my boat and tipping off the patrols. :shifty: :up:

[Steel_Tomb]

Cheers bud, DL'd looks great :ping:

[TopcatWA]

Looks great. Well done on the textures!!!

[Sailor Steve]

Gee, CaptainCox, that looks...um...er...uh, let me see, how can I put this without being too mean? I don't know...how about...GREAT!:rock:

[SubCaptain62]

Im having a problem extracting this mod. When I open the file, an error message comes up that says "C\Documents and Settings\My Name\Desktop\SMALLER+SEA+BED+ROCKS.rar The archive is either in unknown format or damaged"

[THE_MASK]

Any posability in a no seafloor mod to improve my frame rate . Thanks , Sober out .

[CaptainCox]

I guess one could do that....need to look at the .dat. I will be out most of today, back tonight, see what I can do.

[Seafireliv]

I saw this mod and thought ` Why would I want this?` And went back to SH4 offline...

I don`t look at my sub from the outside much, but I was running real low to the seabed to escape numerous planes and even scraped it a bit. In curiosity I decided to look from the outside. It looked really realistic... and then I saw my sub go through a rock.

I returned and d\l this faster than a fast thing! Might even save on frame rate too.

[Ivan Putski]

Nice the finishing touch, thank you. Puts
