Realistic sunrise (make some new achievements in Environment 4.0MOD)

[W_clear]

The result of the sectional drawing is worse than PC ,It is more realistic to see the sunrise from PC . The first pic still can see the star in the sky , I think this is realistic.

Cool. Will you be making sure the sun is 1/2 a degree in size, or at least make a version like that?

Size 1/2? What does it mean for :hmm: 1/2 a degree in size.

Does the sun reduce size 1/2? If refer to the size of the sun, I can well change.

[tater]

The sun and moon are ALWAYS 1/2 of 1 degree in size. That's about half a finger width held at arm's length. I guess you could measure with the scope if the ticks are known.

That's one thing that bugs me about the game world, the giant sun and moon.

I see. I will try change it.

Looks great.
I guess you're using a NVidia, W_clear?

Another thing:
Carotio made a moon-mod for SH3 last year, which not only has 3 different choices for moon-size (I prefer the small version), but also shows changes in brightness and contrast, depending on the moon-phase.
Maybe you should take a look at it - get it here (http://members.home.nl/paajtor/SHIII/Carotios_Moonmod.rar) - and see if it's usefull.
Credits to Carotio, for his wonderfull mod.

Looks good W_clear. I like the way it lights up the whole ocean and not just a narrow line in your line of sight.

[AkbarGulag]

Notice how the sun looks far less like some glowing warm 'orb' when the size was reduced? (during the initial rise)

It looks fantastic.

[tater]

Nice

[kylesplanet]

W Clear, that looks really good!:up:

[castorp345]

beautiful!
:up:

[Ducimus]

beautiful!
:up:


My thoughts exactly!

[Fish40]

Looking very impressive:up: Can't wait to try this new version with 1.5. I especially like the fact that it's easier on the FPS, which I know is a concern not only for myself, but for lots of folks here as well. Keep up the good work:yep:

[Torps]

Looks darn good man:up:

WOW!!:o Looking real good dude!:up: Keep up the great work. One thing though, I hope all these new adjustments and improvments still offer a FPS friendly environment:yep:

[capt_frank]

Ya know, it's getting to the point where the water rendering is beginning to look more realistic than the submarines...

FANTASTICO!! :up: :up:

His 3.1 release did not really, if at all, lower the frame rate. The major adjustment is the glare and haze when you look through optics....it's scarey!

[capt_frank]

Bump...

and W_clear, how's it going for a release of this? I can't believe how real the water and environment appear on screen!

You need to incorporate the smoke on the horizon . Well actually i just realised until the crew can spot the smoke in fog excetera then dont worry . Smoke on the horizon only works if the gamer is observing it , not the crew .
