[REL] Environmental MOD for Silent Hunter 5

[robbythesub]

Thanks for all your efforts w_clear I have enjoyed them very much and love the light fog mod which is very realistic.
I will continue to use your v 5.0.

Hope you will change your mnd and continue to develop the graphics in the game.

:yeah:

[Sepp von Ch.]

This mod conflicts with FX_Update_0_0_9_ByTheDarkWraith.
1) I have to activate this enviromental mod first and overwrite FX_Update_0_0_9_ByTheDarkWraith mod?

or

2) FX_Update_0_0_9_ByTheDarkWraith mod first and then this Enviromental mod?

Thank you.

[Karasunx]

Just wondering if it could be this mod. When my deckgun rounds hit the target at night, the graphic looks like it is surrounded by a box . . . almost as if I were seeing the part of the graphic that is supposed to be transparent but is NOT.
I found to get rid of the deck gun halo just delete these 2 files from the mod

C:\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\Environment 4.5 MOD\data\Textures\TNormal\tex\expl_hallo.dds
&
C:\Silent Hunter 5\MODS\Environment 4.5 MOD\data\Textures\TNormal\tex\expl_hallo_add.dds

That got rid of the artifact but left everything else intact.

I hope this helps.

[Krauter]

Cheers W_clear.

For all the hard work you put into this mod, as well as being one of the leading modders keeping SH5 alive.

Kudos to you, and I hope that many of these insolent little whelps who put down your work is not the reason this is the last.

To you whelps: Shut up or Put up. If you think you can do better, more realistic, etc. Then do it. The modding tools are all there.

Cheers and happy holidays!

Everyone knows how to criticize - do not need much skill. You know how it should be? Then take and make. Otherwise - close your mouth!
And best of all you!

I wanted to say I said. W_Clear doing mod, it does not always work properly, it corrects the error.
I forgot to add this: "Do not mistake the one who does not do anything."

[Sepp von Ch.]

I have the same problem as Gunfighter with famous TDW´s FX mod.
This enviromental mod is fantastical work, many thanks!

[binzy62]

Hi everyone , well that makes three because i to have the same problem with the oil slicks standing on end .... Greats mods tho

[Gunfighter]

Hi guys I have asked TDW to answer in his FX Thread

[binzy62]

Cheers mate , thanks for doing that . I`m sure TDW will have the answer to our problems ...

[Obelix]

W_Clear stop work on the mod?:06:

[Watson]

Really like the mod, but had to remove it as it conflicts with DW UI's and my boat no longer holds depth after a crash dive. When removed all is well again, am guesing its conflicting with multiple ui's but not certain as i use u-boat historical specs too, pitty as i like the look of this mod, but holding depth is not a compromise, anyone else seen this.

[Meldric]

Installed the mod yesterday and experienced a CTD in the mediteranian sea. I red about quite a few issues with CTD with this mod but thought these were solved...

Or is simply noone playing the mediteranian campaigns anymore (as they are really frustrating)?

[Zedi]

I had a lot of CTD in Mare Nostrum, more of them was around Malta where large convoys spawned over merchants.. was a big mess. After just few days I quited the campaign, never got another ctd since then. MN is just a horrible campaign, avoid it at all cost. This mod was fixed already, so I it must be MN.

install "u-boat historical specs" last.

It's not light fog.It's clear dat.
Even the sunny days should have a sense of air。:)

Dear W_clear

It's just a question. Is it possible to add to the weather - climate zone of snow, and snowing/heavy snowing?

according to game front none of your stuff is working. I got the first environment mod. Now whenever I go underwater I crash I need the newest one. Also, my computer is a gaming computer so I didn't think I would be getting problems like this.. This just started as well.

Strange things you are talking mate - i know a lot of people that are using his stuff and they had no problems:DL

I think it would be better for you just to looking for solutions - some mods need other mods to be fixed, and so on

[QUOTE=sober;1601917]Environment 5.7 MOD
Main mod by W_Clear

Added climate zones by ACSoft . Special thanks for the climate zones no CTD fix .
Reduced the water dropplets and water streaks and changed the DDS to DXT1 format (fixes the water skipping animations i hope)
Info on the water animation fix by TheGeneral , much appreciated .


Some people dont run super computers so thats why i have altered some dds files . If you have a low FPS machine then i suggest to enable this mod last. This mod might overwrite other shadow,fog,wave, environment mods .
Install with the mod enabler (JSGME).

Environment 5.0 was the last official release by W_Clear .
Environment 5.1 and greater is also modded by sober .

Please do not use the same my MOD‘s name by your MOD。

Looks absolutely fantastic! So happy that ur back W_Clear, cheers!

If you will release a new version, can you please reduce the fog in the game? Not sure if you can control this, but 80% of the time is fog out there and is really depressing. I would prefer heavy strom, cloudy sky, hurricanes or anything else than fog.. there is just to much of it.

[robbythesub]

W_Clear- the link to your filefront page for this sun halo download is not working, it says invalid user?

Can you check it please?

Great!! :D :sunny:

When will you publish this new version? :06:
Cannot wait.

[Zedi]

Very impressive!

Any chance that you can reduce the fogy days in campaign? There is just way too much fog right now and thats making the game almost unplayable. Stoian managed to make a mod that alternate the weather more often, but thats something like.. 1 sunny day followed by 2 days with fog :/ Better that having a whole week fog as it was before, but still..

[stoianm]

What do you say W_clear about Magnum asked you?... i am very interested to have less fog days also and will be great if you can control the random factor from game who give the weather type... i know it can be done...someone did that in sh3... if you are interested i can send you the mod and the link where you can read about what he was doing

cheers

I can create other fog for the campaign。OK？

[stoianm]

what do you meean by other fog?... we want more no fog days for the campaingn... can you do that?

[W_clear]

I understand wrong. I can't do it.

[Zedi]

So is not possible to reduce the days with fog? I know the weather is generated randomly, but is not possible to reduce the probability for fog? Like more days with sun, storm, rain but less or even no fog at all.

[ustahl]

@W_clear
I try to explain in easy English:

Until now: Many days have fog. Fog can be for a long period. Fog can be for a week. There is too much fog. There is fog too often. We want this to change, if possible.

We want more days with no fog. We want longer periods with no heavy fog.

Can you help?

Real Environment MOD

This MOD, the new sun, the sun is more brilliant, more realistic halo. Narrowed the scope of AroundSunColor closer to reality. The same place and time, there is no fog, mist and sun, is now very real, when fog or cloud covered the sun, the sun will be red.
All of updating the color of each sea area:

Clear day
Medium cloud day
Heavy cloud day
Light fog day
Heavy fog day

The new five different sunrise(Clear day\Medium cloud day)
More white sea foam. 0 meters sea level wind speed is more calm

[Obelix]

2.Added splash of sound submarine.

I think it is necessary to use！

W_Clear,

Love your critical work to SHV and am more than pleased that you are releasing a new version. From all of us, thanks!

A quick question for you (or anyone that knows) ...

This mod alters the NSS_Uboat7x.sim files as part of the Submarine directory.

This is also altered by TDW's MO, New UI's and Depth Keeping mods.

Are the NSS_Uboat7c.sim files in Real Environment based off TDW's or are they based off stock? (In other words do they conflict with TDW's work?)

Thanks!

We can not use this .sim of w_clear in the same time with tdw mods... you can use one or other... in your case you just overitted the w_clear .sim... it is like you not use it

[Magic1111]

in your case you just overitted the w_clear .sim... it is like you not use it

Yes, I know, but for me at the moment the best solution ! I think it´s better to have the .sim files from TDW´s MOD, or ? :hmmm:

[stoianm]

Yes, I know, but for me at the moment the best solution ! I think it´s better to have the .sim files from TDW´s MOD, or ? :hmmm:

BUT

for a long time in the North sea to the east of England the sea was almost Black in colour...... during day time! Something not quite right there lol

Hi W clear,

thanks for never get tired with your nice enviroment mods :up:

...just wondering a bit why you still nerv your nice work by keeping those "InteractiveObjectHighlights" enabled (Lights.cfg) :dead::06:

...its the same with TDW`s diving dept ("D" key) setting @100 meters in sub`s cfg settings (i cant command dive using "D" key if below 100 meters) :stare::88)

every time i have to delete this casual gamer settings...:D

...i should better move on now :arrgh!:

[Obelix]

You can delete NSS_Uboat7x.sim.
I think this is not the best way. It is better to announce what settings to change in the *. sim and make the choice for TDW and MO.

Yes, remove it. This update replace all previous versions.

[Feuer Frei!]

Firstly i would like to say thank you very much for your hard work, you sir, are a genius!
The work you have provided us with is perfection!

Just a quick question, the old env mod v5.0 was 37.1 mb after extraction, this new 'real' env mod is 30.2 mb after extraction.
Should i be concerned? Reason i'm asking is the size is smaller but the mod is an improvement.

RE MOD has some problems. I was amended after release.

1.Not more than 48 hours up to climate change。

I love god rays dont get me wrong, but is there a .cfg setting or something simple like that to "scale them back" a bit? Sometimes the long rays can interfere with the almost perfect "realness" of a scene.

[Feuer Frei!]

Fantastic work, i have been waiting for this.
Question @ W_clear,
i posted a concern in relation to this mod and conflict with the No Dam Halo No Dam Bubbles mod, over in the general SH 5 Forum, there is a conflict with the lightscfg files, what are the solution(s) to this?
I have seen a older post in this thread where it discusses a workaround of deleting the lightscfg file from the No Dam Halo No Dam Bubbles mod.
Is this still a suitable solution?
Edit: i have deleted the lightscfg file from the no dam halo mod, haven't tested it yet though.
Edit 2:
sober has suggested i change lightscfg file:
Forget the no damn halo mod and change the Lights cfg in the real env mod .
[InteractiveObjectsHighlight]
Spread=2
Blend=0.5

Change to

[InteractiveObjectsHighlight]
Spread=0
Blend=0
I have done as he suggested.

Edit 3:
Please ignore this now, all working as intended now!

Short feedback. The fog part is ok. But there is no more halo around the sun and sometimes the weather change from clear sky to storm in just few seconds. Also, many times the sun and the atmosphere is too redish, like a scene from Mars. Using latest release.

After having a while away from sh5 and now returning, im a little confused...

I've just re-installed SH5 on a fresh Windows7 install, and before i used TDW MO mod as my base starting point. This mod contained the environmental mod (not sure which eddition) however it seems W_clear has returned and continued work on his mod,!!

Thus what is the latest (working) environmental mod number, can it be installed over the MO mod, and how does the "Dynamic weather mod effect it? and can this be installed over the Environmental mod?

Thanks

Hi.
I am brand new in matters of mods and becouse of that i am little bit confused.
There are two environmental mods:
Real Env and Dynamic Env.
Does two mods cooperates/complete/exlude each other.
Additionally there is FX_Update.
What is proper sequence of mods if they cooperates.
Best regards.

[tonschk]

Hello :DL, The Real Env and Dynamic Env are two separate Mods, you need to choose which one you think is better or more realistic

With the Dynamic Env. you can choose a few options/variations depending of your own taste

[kylania]

Welcome to the forums! FX Update should be installed early on in your mod soup.

Real and Dynamic Environmental mods are mutually exclusive. You'd use one or the other basically. Both are absolutely beautiful, it's all personal preference.

[Adriatico]

Is it possible to switch between Real env. and Dynamic env. within patrol... or I should dock at port, before I change environment ?

[Magic1111]

Is it possible to switch between Real env. and Dynamic env. within patrol

I think yes, because there are only Env. Files and not Campaign relevant files! So try it out, it works to 99,9%! :03:

[zzkillzz2000]

Hi! Can anyone help me out? I don't know if someone has already asked the same question before cuz the whole thread is too long. I really like this mod but what's bugging me out is the new time compression setting. In stock game if you spot a patrol in the world map, the time compression decreases to x8 if yours is greater and x1 if aircraft spotted. In this mod, the time compression is 4 times greater than the stock(i guess) for every situation and it's really anoying if your traveling a great distance and your time compression is at x1024 then suddenly your spotted by enemy aircrafts and by the time you realize it your dead since the TC only decreases to x8 which is still a big number for fast enemies like aircraft. So i just wanna know how i can edit it to my own taste that's it.
Thanks if you can help!

[Trevally.]

Just goto - C:\Users\Owner\Documents\SH5\data\cfg\Main.cfg

Edit these settings with notepad and save-

[TIME COMPRESSION]
; The first value is the default one, the second value is used when 'travel mode' is activated.
; The two values should be separated by a comma.
; If only one value is specified, that value is used for both default and travel mode.
TimeStop=0
RealTime=1
LandProximity=8,8192
CriticalDamage=1,1024
CrewEfficiency=128
AirEnemyDetected=1,8
SoundEffects=2<<<<TC higher than 2 - no sounds heard
CharacterAnim=32<<<<<TC higher than 32 - no crew will move
FriendDetected=32,8192

Guess I'm going for it again. I'm not 100% sure, but the most likely to suit your need is the same file SeaParameters.cfg. Under each type of sea, there is an entry ReflectionIntensity=...
Try changing it and compare the results.

Have a look at that top picture on page 1.

Does anyone know what causes that jade green color streak in the water around and behind the Uboat?

I use stoianm's environment mod, not this one, and experience this color difference as well (which may have nothing to do with the mod itself). I just saw W_clear's pic and realized he has it too!! Lately, I've been puzzled as to why the water's like that. Does anyone know if this is stock or is it mod related?

The foamy wake is understandable, but a brighter water color like that seems odd to me. Does a boat churn up the water enough to change it's color like that IRL?

In the high seas, it doesn't bother me as much as when you're in shallow waters where the water is clear like it came out of your tap, yet there's that jade green surrounding the boat. It kind of feels like the boat's leaking jade green oil or goop.

:hmmm:

:hmmm:

I think this color is coming from the parameter WaterFoamFilmColorMulti in EnvColors configuration files (Env folder). If you don't like the effect try to play with these parameters. In each cfg file there are many of them, for different weathers and hours, so make sure to edit all of them :03:

[7Infanterie19]

Hey gap, thanks!

Just checked and saw that there were at least 12 of those files:timeout:.

I had a look at WaterFoamFilmColorMulti within one of them and saw that it equals 55EFB600, which looks like a color code, no? If yes, then that's probably the code for jade green. That means I'd have to figure out the desired colors and codes related to each zone, climate, etc. Mother of God, man! If that's the case, then I think that jade green looks good enough for me, ya? hehehe :haha:

those numbers are RGB values in hex code. You can convert them with any online converter. For instance try this one:

http://easycalculation.com/color-coder.php

just input the first 6 digits: i.e. 55EFB6. The above html converter allows you to convert just from hex to RGB format. I suggested it because it shows also visually the color on the screen; anyway there are other converters for converting back from RGB to hex :up:

Thanks gap! I have a converter somewhere on my hd, but didn't want to even try it considering that the amount of work involved in getting all the right colors will kill me, so I'll worry about soup mess instead. :D

I checked that online converter. It's nice and simple, and I noticed there are all kinds of other useful tools on the left too, so I will bookmark it - thanks!:yeah:. And yes, that color was the green I mentioned. :cool:

[Bothersome]

With this environmental mod, and the
SIM FOR====TDW_Depth_Keeping_Problem_UHS_patch_HB_1_0_ 0
mod installed, I get excessive bobbing motion on the VII-A sub badly. The descent and rise time rate is way too fast. In fact, it is so fast that on just a surface command, it will bob back down to 10 meters depth after it has surfaced. If you come up from a ballast blow with speed set to 4 (emergency surface) the boat actually takes flight.

Should I have not installed TDW's patch?

My current mod soup is...

Remove Electric Torpedo Wakes
sobers see thru wake fix
Unterseeboot II SFX
Real Environment - Revision_3
SIM FOR====TDW_Depth_Keeping_Problem_UHS_patch_HB_1_0_ 0
CSPMagui by DrJones Beta v 2.0
CSP_MaGUI_Beata_2_0_English_Menu_txt

Thanks.

OK I think I found a nice solution. I've installed a later version of a mod from TDW. It seems to work fine except that the boat seems to sit a little low in the water for normal floating. But that can be a slight advantage at the cost of 0.5 knots speed. Maybe the enemies can't see me as well now? Thanks.

My mod list now is...

Remove Electric Torpedo Wakes
sobers see thru wake fix
Unterseeboot II SFX

is it possible to apply this over the top of MMM?

I think so, if you avoid to enable part 1 of MMM. You might want to wait for a definitive answer by pedrobas though...

Hello,

The link to download the fog adjustments is broken. Is there another link to download it?

http://www.gamefront.com/files/20152126/Real_Fog_rar

Bump, can anyone upload the file? Also, is this necessary for the mod to run?

[Captain73]

The sea is too light, you can make it darker, closer to the real color?

Hi, I can't seem to download this, it's saying it can't find the file...

I am trying to get hold of this mod. I clicked on the link to w clear mod page and there is nothing there. I also tried clicking on the release 3 link and it takes me to a file that is only 5.8 meg in size. Surely that can't be the whole mod, can it?

Can't find it at GameFront

[TheBeast]

GameFront has new file storage policy.
If non submitted file has not been downloaded in past 60 days it is automatically deleted.

This means GameFront is a temp file storage site.

Where to find it?
Load it up please. Anyone?

[Silent Steel]

If GameFront and other DL services say 'File not found' or the like -
IF you have ad block or something like it running > disable it at these sites or the file sometimes won't show up.
Most of them work like this.

Hello Silent Steel:salute: , in your opinion which is better for SH5, the Dynamic Environmental or The Real Environmental Mod of Water_Clear ?

Hello Silent Steel:salute: , in your opinion which is better for SH5, the Dynamic Environmental or The Real Environmental Mod of Water_Clear ?

Hi Tonschk :salute:

I'm back.
Well, I'm a big fan of the Dynamic Environment for its overall realistic graphics.
The 'clear' water of the Real Environmental Mod of Water Clear I find too transparent, not as good as the Dynamic Environment, reminds a bit of the 'OH II' 'Shallow Water", which I don't like at all.

The fog mod, was testing it when i got your message above, and I must say it's impressive.
All the different types of fog are just wonderful so what to do... :hmm2:

I'll give it a shot and see if it possibly works if I activate Dynamic Environment first and the Fog Mod after.
Checked which files in the two mods are the same ones and I find it worth giving it a try.

Cheers

[Captain73]

The color of the original (stock) of the water I really like it! Why not have a separate fashion "little (real) of the sun and stars," fashion "sunrises and sunsets?" :hmmm:
Night water, cannot be brighter than the sky! :nope: :rock:

This is probably pretty basic but is this supposed to look like this? I am guessing something has messed with the real environment 3 mod. I have only just started modding SH5 as you can probably guess, mod soup at bottom of post. When clouds block partially block the sun I stil get very bright rays coming past the clouds.

Possibly one or more between these mods (or more probably their blending with Real Env):

sobers base sky mechanics

sobers DOF

In other words: ask sober about compatibility issues with the above mentioned mods. :)

P.S, not related with your current issue: I noticed that you have enabled Equipment_Upgrades_Fix_v1_4_byTheBeast and Equipment_Upgrades_Fix_v1_4_Patch_1_HotFix. Shouldn't you enable EUF Patch 1 between them :hmmm:

[Silent Steel]

Regarding what I said about the 'Dynamic Environmental SH5 Shallow Waters V2.1' mod (I referred to another mod and I'm sorry for any confusion) I meant what I said. :yep:

Water in a harbour in the 30's/40's I think could not have been that transparent. I simply don't believe it.
In that mod the water looks like what I've seen in the Caribbeans at some lovely, sunny beach. Not in a harbour with water polluted with oil and much, much more.
Or were those ships environment friendly? Don't think so. :nope:
The sub looks like it's flying/levitating. The shadow of the sub shouldn't be visible.

[Hartmann]

In 30s/ 40s and Now

I think that usually the waters are very dark by the acumulation of mud, sediments, coal and other contamination.

As far as I know, this factor is mainly controlled by game shaders.

A while ago TheDarkWraith introduced some changes to waterPS.fx, for addressing the issue of dat unit's keels not showing underwater. His work was released with Dynamic Environment v2.1, under the name of 'Dynamic Environment Shallow Waters'. One side effect of this submod of DynEnv was that it was making the seabottom (and rocks, seaweed, dived submarines, etc) visible through water, especially at shallow depths, hence the name chosen by stoianm.

At a later stage, Pintea suggested some changes to another shader, namely TerrainSurfacePS.fx, for partially obviating the above mentioned flaw. These modifications were released as 'Dynamic Environment Shallow Waters Patch'. The final result was a semi-transparent effect that is nice around mediterranean and tropical shores, but quite unrealistic when applied to harbour's waters.

Too bad, shaders are applied globally, and as far as I know there is no way to limit their effect to certain areas. Parameters that, sure enough, can be set separately for each zone defined in ClimatZones.tga, are the ones found in EnvColors_*.cfg files. They include UnderwaterUpAlpha and UnderwaterDownAlpha, setting uderwater water transparecy, and a bunch of parameter dealing with sea (underwater and surface) colors.

By making the appropriate changes to the zones around SH5 main harbours in the above mentioned ClimatZones.tga, one can make those areas to feature a darker, greenish (but not lesser transparent) sea surface. :yep:

Guys, what is wrong with the fog with this mod and with SH5 in general? Weather conditions are changing from time to time(wind, wind direction clouds...) but fog ,from some reason, persist for 6-7 days, even more, no matter where i go, no matter where i am in the world. One solution is to save and reload the game and then it is possible to change fog conditions from medium to none or heavy ... Any suggestions?

[tonschk]

I enabled a Mod called lightfog and finally i was able to get rid of the SH5 annoying fog :up:

This is the bad-weather-bug. Search for "bad weather fix" in SH3 forum and and you get an idea what is going wrong with SH5 (it has somethng to do with save-games which are misinterpreted during the load-process). You avoid the broken weather if you avoid to load save-games ;)

:hmmm:

Real Environment is an excellent "cosmetic" mod whose beauty doesn't need for advocating, and it is mostly included in Dynamic Environment.

The latter features though many improvements and features that are not present in RealEnv, and most notably it will greatly affect wind speeds and weather change intervals depending on your current date and location. The only downside is that perhaps it sacrifices slightly eye candy for realism. Often its skies are not as beautiful as the ones seen with RealEnv, and coastal waters around Germany, UK and Norwey can be greish instead of deep blue. :yep:

I am glad that you agree with me about my last few statements: I see there is still a lot of confusion on this matter.

I don't think it's necessary.

In due time our mates here in the forum will see which one of the two is to prefer.

We just have to go on dropping an advice every now and then. :D
