Default Mod questions (moon/waterstreaming)

Hello there. Could someone tell me which moon mod I would need to make the moon reflect off of the water at night? I've seen pictures with moon reflections. Also what is the best moon skin to replace default blurry/flickery moon?

I also enabled the water streaming mod which is great. It was the version that also does something with exhaust. However I believe this conflicts with the SH4 effects for SH3 mod that I have enabled. All the ship's smoke now looks blocky. Is there a waterstream that works with this mod?

And finally, I read somewhere in a thread about dolphins. Is there a mod that adds dolphins that swim with your ship?

Thanks all.

There is a nice moon and dolphins and whales in the super mod GWX2.1

Here is a separate moon mod:

I've heard that OLC was working on something that removed the reflections, and maybe it includes the moon. Are you using any of OLC's mod?

This is only a long shot, I'm not sure about it...

Thanks for the moon link. Unfortunately I'm on a computer that won't be able to handle GWX. I'm just playing the default sim with mods and for some reason the moon does not have a reflection on the ocean's surface. I believe it does if its at the right angle and I'm looking through binoculars. Otherwise its missing.

There's a link to a "Serg's" website in the mod list that contains a moon reflection fix mod. However the download doesn't work. Is there another place to download this?

Yeah, that was the problem with the stock version.

My problem with serg's site is that I can't download the moon or any other mod for that matter. When I click on the download, it takes me to a "page cannot be displayed" screen.:hmm:
