What he said.....

It seems to be related to the angle the boat is at when you zoom in/out. Wait until you've a substantial list and then zoom and back and you find the 'view' is 'stuck' at the underlying angle at the time you zoomed. I fix it by zooming again when on an even keel.

My rig is pretty modern, so I find it hard to think that's responsible, however here are the specs:

AMD Athlon FX-62 dual core
Kingston 2GB KIT DDR2 667MHz PC5300
Gigabyte PCIe ATI RADEON X 1950 XTX 512Mb DDR4
WD Raptor 74GB SATA 10,000 RPM
Sound Blaster X-Fi Platinum

I've run both in original and modded specs. The issue seems far more obvious in SH3, but then SH3 seems to have greater movement of the boat in the sea.

Cheers

p.s. with all due respect, maerean_m, were you to release a game not requiring extensive modding to make it acceptable, people wouldn't need it modded, would they? Nobody will play it unmodded as it is, to use your car analogy, rather like taking delivery of a vehicle and finding it has no tyres.
"Where are the tyres???"
"Oh, you'll have to download a mod for those....but the car can run on the rims, you know...."
