One of the biggest complaints about SH4 was that same sheening effect applied to the external views. Also the wavy shimmery look when seen underwater. Great for a cartoon but not something you see in real life.

Back in SH2 some modder made a binocular view with some water drops. Not particularly realistic since they were 'frozen' in place, but still cool as that was the best that could be done at the time. These raindrops are indeed quite cool to see, but should only be on the periscope and binocular views, including UZO of course. They should not be on the external views.
Careful Steve....the mention of cartoon and SH4 in the same post has brought about some varied reactions from folk in the past
