I would like to clear up my water a little bit,could someone tell me which part of the scene data file deals with water clarity?Have searched many posts and threads but not sure what to tweak,and yes I do have the editor I just need to be pointed to the right node. Thanks in advance for any help.:up:

I think you need to adjust the settings in the ENV folder.
EnvColors_blah blah blah.
Not the scene.dat

If you're refering to underwater clarity then this may help you.

Open the scene.dat with Sh3-editor and look for the following entry:

The highlighted "ZMax=15" is the area that you'd need to tinker with (both ZMin and Zmax). I forget what each of the values correlate to but basically a higher number equates to better visibility. I guess you could trial and error your way to what you want (my values above are for poor visibility and very murky underwater clarity).

I hope that helps!

True that. :yep: But you're all great at what you do! :yeah:

The level of skill and craftsmanship you guys display just turns me inside out! I'd be one of the first in line to vote for a "Modders' Appreciation Day" to be added to the Subsim Calendar.

I know just enough to be a danger to myself and my SH installations. :roll:

For me, hex editing will likely always be just a notch below witchcraft, in its arcane complexities, but staring at the files as they're presented in S3D has begun to brighten the light bulb filament a bit.
