Please forgive me, if I ask a stupid question, but what has really changed that much?
I mean, I allready see some water reflections, and sun/moon reflections. And I do see both dark and light colour clouds!

So this project: can it lead to transparent water too? :hmm:
THAT would really interest me... (just love that feature in SH4...) :rock:
Is it possible at all?

Thanks very much Reece! I really appreciate the work you put into that!! :rock:

That's the first complaint for the nights being too bright, that's what most people want, but that really depends on the Env colors your using, I found stormy nights to be still almost black, if you were testing in the Navigation academy screen the nights stay like dusk by default, I got fooled by this!!:) I checked out the link but can't read German.
Oh yes that would be nice, seeing your u-boat just below the surface or watching a sinking ship dissappear into the dark waters! Gives me goose bumps!!:lol:
I will do some research here Hitman!:yep:
I didn't know SHIV had transparent water, so you can see your submerged boat from the surface? Thats cool!!:up:
Hmmm, wonder if we can import some more files!!:cool:

[quote=Reece]Yeah same, I don't have the game but thats the only feature of SH4 that really want.

it *might* be possible. From underwater you can see stuff that is out of the water...
Hopefully its not hardcoded.:hmm:

[quote=johnno74]i got SH4... if you want i can send you the Data folder :yep:

Hi Reece, I followed your progress through the past weeks and I'm very glad with your results. What tool do you use to edit the scene.dat and other dat-files ?

Thanks rik007, but all fixed now, have 3 versions that I will put to a new thread:

Cheers.:up:

Cheers for the offer Jochen... but I've never actually tried modding SH3 - and as much as I'd love to give it a go, I just don't have time. I don't get nearly enough time to play the game as I'd like, I don't need another project! :lol:

Actualy i have a SH4 running here with a 24k version - making that 16k is no problem....

Ships over the horizon and all....:arrgh!:

Yes thanks Mav87th, hence my new thread!:up:

the offer counts for everyone :yep:

and it stays availeble for you IF you should change your mind :up:

Then you should read the second line at every topic. It is in english.
I will try your 16k Version and tell you how it works.
Very good work:rock:
Kind regards from Germany

Well it seems this is something others have tried before....

I'll have a wee tinker...

Can you please send me the scene.dat from SH4, as well as a list of files (not directories) in the data dir?

(check PM for my email addy)

Cheers
John

il search em up for ya :up:
or should i send the entire SH4 data file ? :hmm:

gonna try somthing to... but im sure it wont work (like usual)


edit:
yup... it doesnt work... game crashes when i want to take a look outside...

i took a copy of the SH4 env folder and put it in the SH3 data file (ofcourse i made a backup)

Mohr, can you give me you SH4 scene folder so I can try?

sure...

the reflections of helium and moon appear only through the
binoculars and I believe that they is very intense. is the next
update roughly calculated that they will be ready?:rock: :rock: :rock:

I wouldn't mind if they do :up:

I have had a very busy long weekend with many visitors, & now today the power has been off due to a faulty MCB on the pole & waited all day for someone to come, finally fixed!:oops::yep: Will try to get back to testing tomorrow & hopefully an update with sun rise/set reflections fixed, can someone confirm that the moon does or does not have a reflection, is this in 8/16k version?:)
Thanks.

Ummmm, helium?????? :huh:

Did I miss something?
