Did did not solve my problem, only a higher AS (8x) made it a bit better.
Turning on full scene glare did the job for 90%

The only bad thing about my 8800 GTS is that I have no more sun glare :-?
Any fix available yet ??


Foofighters....I have two 8800 GTX's SLI and found that if you are running AA too high, say above 8x, you loose the sun glare.
You might want to try turning it down a bit and see if that works.

Also, I highly recommend the Nhancer utility ap for all Nvidia users ( if your not already using it.)

diddo Canonicus
 
thanks for the info will be running it today.

Yeah, Leo's look great. The reflections are just right. Very strange indeed. I use an ATI card and wonder if this is the cause. I'm not sure.

AVGWarhawk 08-25-07 03:17 PM

The shadow anomly seems to be worse during rough weather. More pronounced. Not sure if this plays a factor.

leovampire 08-25-07 03:28 PM

I don't like the look of the full scene glare
 
so that is off and I am working on the reflections effect's in the scene file now so as soon as I can get it looking good I will post a download to it for everyone is that cool with all of you?

There's not only foam, but light reflections and shades too. The foam shows up and disappears depending on the wind speed.

Looking forward to the new release, Seeadler!

This is one mod I'm checking for every day. Compare the above pics with this one I took last fall, in high winds at sea:

:ahoy:

(Note: My photo was taken from about 50ft over the water, so the waves appear smaller than they actually were.)

AVGWarhawk 08-26-07 11:51 AM

Leo, looking forward to it with much anticipation. This mod is just outstanding. The first time I experienced the foam kicking around in heavy winds...I was astonished because it looked very real. Look at some of the screen shots...WOW:up:

LukeFF 08-26-07 06:17 PM

Just a thought here: is it possible to add sea foam/turbulence to the area surrounding a ship when it sinks? Currently it kind of looks like the ships are sinking in a swimming pool. :shifty:

clayman 08-26-07 08:54 PM

Yes ... if that is possible it would be stunning. Always thought that would look great but thought it not possible ... but after seeing LBO & Envir do their magic I now wonder what can't be done.

He's right... lower your AA and the sun shall return.

leovampire 08-27-07 03:10 PM

actualy guys I did find in 2 seperate files
 
effects pertaining to both sinking splash for ships and sinking foam and playing with them a bit so it might be possable to create a better effect there.

But first things first I need to get the reflection effects working correctly then I can go further with the other effects.

So far I have managed to get rid of most of the strainge effects with reflections that happen in the distance views and now have the reflections both above and below the oceans working more in unison with the angle of the sun in the sky.

Just need to work on coloring and fine tune things a bit more.

Just slow going as I am finishing up a new graffics pack for Duciums T.M. 1.6 to make it so he can go out with a bang seeing he is droping the project after this release.

WilhelmTell 08-31-07 06:03 PM

Hey Seeadler,
may I ask how your progress is with the environment mod ?
I hope you didn't put that on hold, because the first version you released is very promising. Keep up the good work !
