Here is the Riki"s SH5 water scene.dat file with OLC style horizon fix:

Thanks, but I already have that scene.dat. This is more or less concerning the ENV files such as the EnvColors_Atl.dat, EnvColors_Arct.dat and the EnvColors_Med.dat files. I did a side-by-side comparison of the scene dat files from OLC/MEP and SH5 water mod...they're darn near identical. Some of the node lines are different, but slightly so to the point they would have barely an impact on change.
I was able to narrow it down to those files (ENV) when I loaded the Flat Sun fix over the top of the ones from Rik007's water mod files. By doing so I have the horizon fix, but not the water mod colors. The SKY files in the SH5 water mod appear to be unchanged if I have the FSF installed; they do not get over-written if the Flat Sun Fix (FSF) is installed on top of the water mod.
Comparing the ENV files with the FSF ENV files there is a huge difference in the node parameters...especially where the colors/reflections and sun positions in the sky are concerned. I have tried different variations with these files along with 2 versions of the scene.dat files. The result is either this or that but never both. I am probably doing something very wrong here and forgetting something which is very likely.
Some of the fixes I have tried came close. It's that the water/reflections of the sky and sun position play a big part on the water mod. I'm still learning these dat file entries bit by bit. On another note: I am not making a big deal about this, I am content as of now on how my setting are like in-game and I am still enjoying both mods as they are. I am just tinkering around to see if I can actually get things to work on my own.....that's all.
