Default Clear water

Haven't had any luck finding it on my own so I am asking for some help. If SH3 Cdr isn't used to start a game, how do I go about setting the water clarity to 18. Am going to have a go at movie making and want to set up the water so the boat can be seen. I know some shots will have the water murky like stock GWX. I have the SH3 tweeker on my system, but not sure hwere to look for adjusting this.

It would be the Scene.dat file. If you want the mod, it is at UBRS in the SH3 Mods (General Section)
called the Clear_Water_scene.rar

Another alternative would be to take the Scene.dat file from your stock installation

Wan't sure of replacing the scene.dat file would have a negative impact on the game, CTD and such. Downloaded the mod mentioned earler, will give that a try and see how it goes. Just tried the clear water mod. Isn't what I was wanting to do. Does anybody know what lines SH3 Cdr changes to make the water clarity 18? That is what I am looking to do, give me a clear view of my boat when underwater.

HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....as mentioned earlier ...if your adamant on changing the water clarity....back up your original file then put in the stock one ...if that don't work (and it should as I've tried it on numerous occassions myself) then put the original one back and you've lost nothing in the process. ...If that's no good I may have an alternative file you might want to try :hmm:
