Found this on YouTube:-

It brings back memories of Cape Horn on a good day!!!!

Oh to get this effect in SH3

I have been playing around with the following re ship behavior:-

C of G - making it higher than the draught so that the ship becomes tender - comes to upright very slowly - too much and it capsizes. Where the C of G is set on most models at the moment makes the ship act "stiff", like a boat in a bath).

The drag which I think slows the rate of pitch and the roll and the

fr_ratio which I'm not sure does an awful lot (anyone know?)

Anyone know anything about the weather module ( where is it ???). It would be nice to get wind streaks on the waves. I had to increase wind speed to 300 kph in a mission to get some decent rolls and pitches from Bismark, Gneisenau and their pals, but the sea still looked calm compared with this video.

Also water stream on surface ships - Rubini did an awful lot of work on water streams on the subs

, anyone think this is possible on surface ships? Where would you start looking etc etc?

Food for thought - or a non starter?

Regards.
