16k green Atlantic

[StarLion45]

Hi everyone!
I must say that I don't regret to download and install this Mod.
Holy macrel it's so natural and realistic
I read also regarding this mod that must not have these two mods (8km&16km) installed at the same time ,ok I listen to these experts and only installed "16km Green atlantic" , and disable "GWX-16km Atmosphere" , and yeah by the way,remember to have "Improved wave textures installed,and all of these mods are JSGME friendly:p
I took a screenshot of it with my new VII type sub I change my mind regarding sub and removed my type IID sub,too small for me I am a big guy:rotfl:

Look at the wonderful colour

You can't see nothing down there!

Just the way I like it!

What a great mod!

The Atlantic is not green.

The Atlantic is not green.

Here is the painting that inspired me:

Titled: Submarine On The Atlantic, M_goecke.

In defense of Reece's mod...

I know that water is chemically blue but and besides, some parts of the ocean have populations of microscopic phytoplanktons. These organisms have the green pigment of chlorophyll that contributes to the color green of any natural body of water...

I`m also using Reeces mod, rather prefer it myself, I`ve gotten some nice comments about it in my screenshots. Puts

Sure, on a painting you can also make it red, yellow or pink.
But I get many pics that I take when I was in the North Atlantic and no one is green.
Sorry.

Can anyone put up a image when u boat is submerged, i like the look of the green sea is it the same when submerged?

Chisum, it is SO green!




I saw it in Das Boot!
:rotfl:

Seriously, I've seen a few photos that clearly showed greenish water, but they mostly seemed to be of bays, coves and such. I can't speak from experience, of course, since the only time I ever saw the Atlantic Ocean was from 35,000 feet on my way to my only tour of Europe...and that was 1962!

Where was it filmed ? In the Baltic Sea or in a colored swimming pool ?

Probably because it's often the case.
But note that this green is the right color of the North Sea and also in the Dover channel.

I understand.


The right color of the North Atlantic is very typical.
If the sky is sunny it's a dark blue like South Atlantic but no also blue as the South Atlantic, a little bit more dark.
And in case of covered sky it's a melt of very dark blue and few variants of grey that I named "Blue steel". This is my favorite color and it's absolutly wonderfull specialy if many wind and big waves because the color "blue steel" is changing all the time.
Very impressive !
Of course, it also depends on the thickness of the cloud layer and hence, the amount of light(Google translation, not sure it's correct...).

Compare with the South Atlantic



You can also find many sea/ships photos on this website:

Hope helped.

Let me show you again 3 pics with the Atlantic color I like.

This pic is in the West of Rockall Banks



Here is near the Great Banks



And this, I don't know where it was but I like it too.



But I must say to Reece that I like his job witch is probably a must to navigate in the North Sea where the color is the same green.

Hope you don't worry.

Funny thing that: I have a copy of the original theatrical release on videotape, and in it the water is blue, even in the underwater shots. In the Director's Cut and the 'Uncut' version the water is green. Did they edit it with some kind of filter? I don't know.

That's funny too - the North Atlantic looks a lot like...the Pacific!

[Chisum]

You right, I agree.
I have just rewatched the movie yesterday, the long version in german, and I saw that all sequences surfaced, the Ocean is blue-grey, grey or blue.
But when submerged water is green effectivly.

I get some screenshot from the movie.







I thing they have a reduced submarine and used a swimming pool to turn the submerged parts with external green spotlights to give this color wich permitt us to watch something.
Because normally, after 5 or 10 meters submerged you can't see nothing, it's too dark.

Also I like this pic, very impressive !



And also this one wichseems coming right from SH3 lol !
