What I really, really, really wanted, was a RUSTY WET skin, metal shinning on some spots, a long shiny line across the ballast tanks, due to being wet. The metal on the uboats on SH3 looks way too bloody dry, like they were never out of the shipyard.
Anyway, just my two cents...

Its not impossible but difficult. I did it accidentally with my first skin I never released. It was a conning tower effect that would make it look wet under certain sun conditions. The sun would have to be at a particular angle for the wet look to appear. Problem is I can't remember how I did it. :rotfl: I'm sure I would stumble on it again.
Drawback is if the sun isn't at the right angle the skin looks dull.

I played around with this same thing last night. And just like you Wolfehunter, I got the wetlook in the sun, but at night or in a storm, it looks terribly dull and rather undetailed. Like I said before, it is possible to get the look, but it would only look right in certain light, and only be good for screenshots, not actual play IMO.
