[REL] New SHIV Scene for 16k & 8k Atmosphere versions.
 

Hi, I thought I'd start a new thread for those who were looking for 16k Atmosphere versions & thought it was a no go! Well thanks to Hitman for pointing me in the right direction & Der Teddy Bars alteration to the tweak txt file so as to change the scene.dat file to the 16k version (still Beta)!:yep: For pictures and more info see:

For General 16k users this should suit any supermod:

For all 8k atmosphere users suitable for stock or any supermod:

Cheers,:D

Can i use the 16k atmosphere for the stock version 1.4b? Will this be okay with the spotting crew on watch? Will ships be identified from 16k? Or do i have to make some changes....Thx

This is only the scene files not sensors, you will have to install a 16 atmosphere version then apply this, and yes it's ok for stock, I am not totally sure what is involved with the 16k atmosphere mod as I only use an 8k version myself.:yep: Ships can be seen at a greater distance but not sure if the crew can, there are a number of sensor mods available, the last by Rubini.:) Can anyone elaborate on this?

Hi Reece,
it woks fine even without the fix!!:rock:
But i miss the moon Reflection.
Kind regards from Germany

I love it! Great improvment:up: :up: :up: . Using 16km version and GWX whitout problems.

I thought i was alone:).

Absolutely outstanding and brilliant mod. Thanks a lot, Reece.

You do manage to find things quick, I should have you do my beta tests for me!:yep:
To be honest I thought that was fixed with the SHIV version, I haven't actually come accross a scene with the moon yet!:yep: Will look closer, can anyone else varify this?:-?
Thanks.

Great work mate!! Stay tuned.
Kind regards:up:

EDIT: THERE IS MOONREFLECTION!!!!!!!!

Hmm...installed it with jsgme, and now i have rain comin' from the blue sky..... im missing the clouds and the fog... using gwx 1.03... Do i have to disable the GWX 16K mod before enabling this (or do these two work together)...? :damn:

Edit: Stupid me! I installed this OVER the gwx 16km mod....of course it became a conflict!! Now it works like a dream!! Beautiful!!

Great Reece! Thanks :up:

Thanks Reece!

One question, is the sea reflection from the "GWX sea less reflect" mod?

EDIT: Also, I've noticed something peculiar: as the sun sets with its halo just barely visible over the horizon, the sun's full reflection is still visible in the ocean below....

Hi Reece. I have been playing now for the whole evening and the result is great! Some small improvements are: the area for which reflection applies on the sea doesnot fit to the actual horizon making distant ship appear as dancing above the sea. I noticed also that night sky objects (stars and moon) do not appear and of course the sun set reflection which stays after the sun is down.

Just downladed it, Reece.
Thanks man, great job!!! :up: :up: :up:

What version 8 or 16k? I have had someone say that the moon has no reflection & I have seen stars in both versions so I'm not sure what is wrong there, mine also does not show the sun reflection after sunset, please note that if your using the Academy navigation mission (haven't tried the others) to test, the sky etc doesn't seem to be correct, even in stock, the nights don't get dark & haven't seen the moon there either!:-?
