Re. the problem of equipments looking poor when rendered on top of dat units, while digging into SHIII cargo models, I have discovered that they include a
DynamicShadowCast controller which is absent from the SH4 cargo files that you sent me yesterday. Probably this controller won't work on SH5, but who knows, it could be worth a quick test.
In addition, SHIII cargo use
WaterReflection controllers as well, but IIRC it sure that they are ignored by SH5's engine.
