Can the colours of an impact-splash be changed?
 

Here's the impact of a modern torpedo...note the brownish colour:

Can the splash in SH3 be changed, to have more colours (like black and brown)?
I don't recall ever having seen a mod that does this.

Sorry, looks more like grey on grey to me
:rotfl:

I vote for a colour change. The stock splash doesn't look right to me either.


Throw in some body parts too.....:hmm: .....gibs on the periscope:rotfl: :rotfl:

An added bit of colour would be nice :up:

Alex, thx for uploading that pic...I had it in cache, that's why it did show on my monitor.:)

You're very welcome ! :up: hehe
Personnally I host my pics on imageshack all the time to avoid this problem. :know:

man I would not want to be on that ship :doh:

Well actually this brownish color is only due to the fact the Mk48, exploding under the keel, the shockwave passing through the entire ship once it is broken in two brings a billion debris together with her. If we want to be logical, brownish color should only appear whenever we break the target in two I think :D

That happens allot, at least after I attacked. :lol:

But I did a brief search, and there's actually a mod around that changes the splash (click the image to go to the site}:

The problem is that the download is broken.
Who has this mod, or knows where to get it?
There's a mod-pack on UBRS from the same author, but it doesn't contain this tweak in particular.

I done that into SH II and SH IV, may be the same files used into SH IV can be used here into SH III.

For SH II i use that real picture above, many time ago.

For SH IV i use the same real picture above...

But there was 4 files, i made one in green/black, another 2 in white, and the last just like the same colour than above into the real picture.

For SH IV i maintain part of the splash in white, as water splash, and made the remaining half in green and black as chemical gases and residuals of the explosion.

You can download the files for SH IV from here, under name :

I'm sorry...:oops:
That greenish stuff is not what I'm looking for. A bit overdone in my opinion.

Plese read what i wrote...

One of those files... is just a crop of the real photo above...

You can rename it and use it into one or more locations...

:up:

Ahhh, now I see what you mean.
I'll give it a go as soon as possible (if holidays permit).

Thx!:D

Kaleuns:
Have you taken in account that the brown color is because the ship is loaded with dirt to make it heavier like a real-life loaded ship?
This is done in order to see the ship's structural behavior when hit by a torp. That's why the photo shows a lot of brown when the torp explodes. ;)
