However..., my nr 1 pet peeve is not the lack of AA, not even the flag size. (probably fixed in the first mod) No, for me it is the transparency of the water! It just doesn't sit right with me. I thought SHIII had it perfected. This just feels like eye candy for it's own sake. I mean, how often, on photos, can you actually see 6-10 feet below the water line? (not pics of yachts anchored at some mediterrrenean atoll, mind you ) I sure hope there's a setting for this.

There.. feels much better now. Now, give me my Perch or Tambor boat..

In some areas of the Pacific, you can see quite a ways below the waterline.

What you see is actually quite realistic. If you turned it off, you would essentially be making the game less realistic.
