yes, i think its the only way for us to get a water, finally looking similar to sh4 or sh5 water. it will not be the same, nice and real looking one. but it would be much more better, than all the existing mods for the water!
i dont know, if they are "stored" in it, i think no. but the controllers for the foam texture layers are defined there. but the values and the call for the texture files must be somewhere else. havent found it.
its quite time expensive and since i tried to use a hires mod, my sh3 only says "cannot initialize 3d engine" even i deleted all files and changed everything to normal state...i always have to use the display changer to get it started now. disturbing ****...

would not be clever to make it overriding the existing controllers. but a bumpmap addition for the water would give us these small light reflections, which make the water of sh4 and sh5 that nice. there is already a bumpmap for this in sh4 stored. we "just" need to get the water generator use it.
