Beware the upgrades! They are a tiring business! I've been tinkering with my new rig for a week now, and the results are still not satisfactory!

@Von_Virus: sadly, you'll never see a proper sun glare effect on an old ATi card (only through workarounds, but they could be taxing on your system and produce other side-effects). Only ATi cards from HD2xxx and up produce that effect. I chose an ATi 3650 for my new rig, and it's a pretty decent card for its cost...but I've run into inexplicable slowdowns on SH4. Something in PE_1 is causing a MASSIVE slowdown whenever I torpedo a ship. I hope this has been remedied in PE_2, which I've just downloaded.

Regarding PE vs. Environmental mod, I have to admit I'm biased. As long as Dave's spirit carries on in PE, there's no second choice for me. And kriller2 has made an amazing job with keeping the legacy of Dave alive...
