I do believe someone has altered the scene.dat file to correct this problem but i have yet to run this as i believe it may be a stock 1.4 scene.dat and not have any of the alterations in it for ROW.
I made a modification to the scene.dat file (not for ROW- I'll be working on a ROW version next week) to fix the last of sun below the horizon problems not fixed by the 7.12 drivers

Here's the ati scene.dat fix if you're not using ROW- THIS IS ONLY FOR HD SERIES CARDS. The ATi x1xxx cards don't need it. You also need the 7.12 drivers, either ATi or Omega for the HD series cards.

ATi HD3870,3850,2900, and 2600 work with SH4, one issue left- the sun texture is rendered through solid objects. The water rendering is more realistic than Nvidia cards though.

Do NOT get an ATi HD2400. The card is underpowered for SH4
