Default Splashes in GWX

I found that watching a ship pop its top is very satisfying yet when the large chunks of debris splash down they dont make a real splash. I dont expect anything like when a torp hits just enough of a splash to make it look real for some 40 ton peice of scrap falling from 400 ft. Is this possible?

Hi!

It might be possible, but I'm not sure it would be worth the effort to find all the debris models and then ensure they created splashes, since every splash would have to be animated and would thereby result in some impact on your display frames per second (FPS).
