My computer won't run SHIV until I get an upgrade, and that will only happen if patch 1.3 fix's the many bugs in the game!:x
I was under the impression that SHIV water was supposed to be far better?:-?
Many are trying to convert SHIV to Atlantic, maybe they should be converting SHIII to Pacific, would be better for a lot of people as it would run on older systems, like mine, without the bugs!!:yep:
This might open a can of worms!:lol:

The water in IV is better only in that you can see under the surface and the reflections are supposedly better. The "ocean" is far better in III because it is modelled better with regards to wave motion and so forth...giving it more atmosphere. Stormy weather in IV just plain sux because there arent any bigger waves, the ocean just seems to foam up and turn white! I have hope that more mods will come (in addition to Beerys excellent RFB), but this kind of water in the pacific would be a great thing indeed and add MUCH needed immersion... great stuff here!

I think if you did so you would need to reduce the campaign layers
loading being what it is. and that campaign layer system I think is
better in SH4 as it breaks down the full layers to sub layers for each
theatre I think.

I party agree with you on this. Storm water in SH4 needs work for sure.

You forgot to mention the light shafts and algae ( toned down version ), I can't say enough about these effects. Those plus the water being transparent, set SH4 apart.

All that said, what Reece is doing is awsome work, getting the most out of SH3 for sure.

Just downloaded this and... WOW :o :doh: :D

:rock:

Awesome work Reece, thank you very much!!!

No probs, glad you like it!:D Pity it's virtually impossable to get a 16k version, maybe RB will read this and and get that uncontrollable urge to to prove me wrong!:lol: Though I think he has enough on his plate!:yep:

I am using the GWX 16 KM version from Reece toghether with
Sobers 3D waves and it looks God Damn beautifull work...

Screensh.

Fired your mod up for the first time over the weekend Reece, nicely done :up:

Only too happy to do my bit, you have all done your fair share of modding, and that is what makes this game & forum a real pleasure!:yep::up:

I agree. This place is great! :up:

this is really the greatest visual mod ever!!! Thanks so much for those wonderful reflections!

mic

Very nice Work Reece.


May i use your Mod in my upcoming Modpack for 2008 ?

Best regards

Oh, would that it could be done! :rock: The opportunity to prowl the oceans in a sub of Allied or Axis affiliation would be a coup of incredible proportion. Judging from the reception given SH4 in critical reviews and in the opinion of more than a few in the community, there's a lot of life still left in SH3. I applaud the efforts of all you gifted modders taking it beyond expectation.:up:

Is there going to be a 16k version of this??
