This is the rain I get in GWX:




Whether in external camera, on the bridge, or through binoculars...it looks the same everytime.
Even though it's late-summer, it appears as snow to be honest.
And the odd thing is, that is blinding to much at closeby, while it should be blinding further away (forming a curtain)...it seems as if it's only raining within 2m around me (or my viewing point).

How can this be changed, to look a bit more realistic?
In a storm as seen above, rain shouldn't be a steady stream like it is now...it should come in showers, gusts of wind blowing curtains almost horizontally.

I'm thinking of a few values to change:

- ChangeTimeMin > set to have more frequent wind-changes
- RandomWindSpeedMax > set to greater max-intensity of the random wind
- RandomWindSpeedVariationSpeed > set to higher intensity

- DropsNumber > higher
- RainIntensityChangeSpeed > higher
- MinSize > allot smaller
- MaxSize > a little smaller
- HeadColor > darker
- HeadAlpha > more transparant
- TailColor > darker
- TailAlpha > a little more transparant

Now I have 2 questions:

- which scene.dat should I try to edit? One is in default SH3/data, the other is in ...:\Program Files\SilentHunterIII\MODS\GWX - 16km Atmosphere\data (in my setup)
- which program should I use, to open the .dat-file?
