The problem is that those photos are from a river. Rivers and lakes have a lot of vegetation in them... and around them (which causes the underwater green colour). The atlantic ocean is another matter entirely.

The world's oceans do not ALL look dark and murky green below the surface so..... in that way, this mod is unrealistic. Sorry, dont mean to be harsh... but its just the truth.

Das Boot is an utterly fantastic film but its special effects are really dated and old now so im not sure that we should copy them too closely. (even though its impossible not to love the film)
