I'm sure that everyone will have their own opinion, of course. But I'm looking for something that makes those islands look more like the South Pacific. The game is beautiful, but that's one thing they didn't get right. What's with those sand colored hills. They should be green and covered with trees.
I even went into the CVG file to see if I could increase the number of palm trees. Thought that might be the answer. But there is no option for it.
I'm using Environment 5 and I love what it does for the sea and skies. All I need now is to fix those islands so I can really feel as though I'm in the Pacific.
Now, if only we could move those islands from Assassin's Creed: Black Flag, in here. Wow.

The only thing I could think of are two little mods from Sober, which are in the D/L section. They are a "Better Rocks" and "Better Sand" mod. I use them, and they are an improvement over stock. I don't think to my knowledge that anyone has done a terrain makeover per say. I'm with you though, I wish they would!

Fish, I installed them. Thanks! I can see the difference in the sand, right away. Makes those little atolls look terrific. Major fix. But the rocks. I'm not sure if they installed correctly. I was hoping to see the same rocks as in Sober's screenshot, but I don't. Looks great and I want that.
I'd swear I see more trees, too.

My post has been hi-jacked by the grammar police and they're pullin' in Fish on a 204 (using "per say").
Okay, I got it. My winzip was acting screwy. I got it sorted out and I think it looks great. Don't have to look at islands, anymore, that look like yellow glaciers.

Sorry, but it brought out my inner Grammar Nazi. There is no such word or phrase as "per say". It's "per se", which is a Latin phrase meaning "of or by itself".

I used a rock mod by {think he spell it} Carlito and I think I ran sobers sand mod with it.
