Simply as a point of productive criticism, certainly nothing else because I'm a fan of your mods...
bubbles underwater do not form round bubbles as one would think of them being blown in the air. Rather, they form a semi-sphere, or disc shape (almost like a jelly-fish) that expand and break part as they rise.
Could you see anyway to work in bubbles like that?
Here's a pic of some realistic bubbles in the water (I hope I'm posting this pic right, never done that before. Also hope it's not violating anything, would a mod please let me know if this is not good)

edit: yep, well it didn't post the pic, but it linked. Guess that will have to do for now. Cheers Ailantd, good work!
You are right.
In fact I started working with that shapes, and ever more complicated forms, but with the billboards movement as they are in the game certainly round bubbles worked better as them look fine with every movement direction. It could look good in bubbles when a ship sink, but devs use that same texture in propellers so no way it looks fine everywhere.

Anyway, what version do you like more, micro or normal?
