Enviorment Effects
 
Is it just me or am I the only one that doesn't like the transparent water and new fog effects? Fog is ok but it makes my men look like ghosts and if there are a few ships around it can start to slow down. And the water thing is cool but the pacific isn't THAT clear, it seems really fake to me. What happens to my frame rates when the devs add higher resolutions and AA and I have those effects turned on? Also the ocean is way to bright blue and foaming like crazy in rough waters, It looks really ugly and fake. Sorry for my rant! I do really, really love this game and I am a devoted Sub Commander and I have been for years. (well when i'm at my computer anyways)

i was thinking as you did about the sun...but then i passed the lake Vättern that is swedens largest lake. with the sun right on..and good damit...it do look realistikt in the game. and the water, i even get that effekt on our eastcoast..and that water is dark as crap..but i you see 1 meter down or 2 if the water is clear and the sun in on. so that too looks realy great.

I was in the AA gun seat and turned around to look at the crew, I could see through one of the crew and could see the line of the edge of the Bridge through his head. I turn off the Fx and looked again, solid could not see through him.

I applied Redwine's mod to remove sealife (seaweed, plankton, etc) and I gained a few framerates. Now I can play the game reasonably well.
Can anyone supply a mod to totally remove the sea junk?

Here's the link to Redwine's "Increased Underwater Visibility" mod-

perhaps could be possible reduce the water transparency like sh3 and gain framerate.:hmm:
