Props for Thomsen's 3.0 Water

HuskerNlincoln · 10-16-08, 08:45 AM

Morning gents,

Just had to say that I installed Thomsen's 3.0 water and"OH MY GOD"is all I can say. It really has made the viewing amazing.

I included a few shots for your enjoyment.

Thanks you to Mr. Thompsen and all the other modders who have taken this game to the next level!

Thanks mate! That was very kind!

But I just did the water, you should really thank OLC for his awesome environment.
My part on this mod was very simple compared to his work.

Also, this V3 version has a bug with night time, water looking too bright. There's already a correction for this, V3.1, you should try it!

This version 3 makes me want to stop my U-Boat and go to the rear AA gun deck and do a couple of hours fishing while taking the beautiful and peaceful effects of the ocean …..aircraft spotted …dam this war

Didn't even have chance to catch one

Message Recieved From Task Force........Ha Ha, Im in 1941 and I havent seen a plane so far in this carear (well there were two), we got are poles and are catching fish.

Off the american east cost you can catch fish that Croak called croaker. Heres a pic of my weapons officers catch. (Actual fish on the east cost that actualy Croak, Ive cought them I should know.)

Bottle of whiskey for Philipp and I am off to join Task Force catching some of those nice looking fish

Ok lads keep a look out for Task Force.

Sinking ship spotted sir Looks like task force went this way

yep keep a sharp eye lads.
ship sinking sir

Dam how doe's this guy find time to fish :hmm:

Shall we contact Philipp Thomsen and ask which way Task Force went :hmm:

after two bottles of Whiskey he wont even know which way he is going

dont the sea look nice sir

Oh Shut up

Wow now Version 3.1............... Just been using your 3.1 water mod Philipp every thing was ok until night time now have this problem………my watch officer says he is not going up on the conning tower until I get some of those nice teddy bear night lights fitted because its too scary up there.

The night water is a great improvement I have already given you 10/10 so now it must be 20/10

Philipp_Thomsen · 10-16-08, 04:46 PM

Don't even know what to say...

Task Force · 10-16-08, 05:57 PM

Anouther great job.

Jay · 10-21-08, 11:37 AM

When should this mod be installed: while in port during a career, only at the beginning of a new career, etc.?

I'm asking because I installed ver. 3.1 while at sea in an ongoing career, and the result was a totally black sky. I uninstalled it and the graphics were back to normal. BTW, I should mention that I had exactly the same experience with the 16 km distance mod.

Dito on all...

A toast to PT for all his great work..

I would suggest enabling it before you go out on patrol; I'm not sure if it can be enabled safely mid-career. Same deal for a lot of other mods; enabling or disabling them while at sea can really frig things up (black skies, ctds, etc.).

Philipp_Thomsen · 10-21-08, 06:46 PM

This game can be enabled in my patrol IF you enable it on top of the latest version of OLCE2.

This mod really shouldn't be enabled if you don't have OLCE2.

This mod is 16km version, just as OLCE2.

This mod is in fact a TWEAK FOR OLCE2.

HuskerNlincoln · 10-22-08, 11:04 AM

I would agree with the others, I have been following the rule that you should only install mods, any mods, when back at base after a patrol.

Regarding this water mod, it really adds alot to the game, the 3.1 version did fix the blueness of the water to be more realistic, so much so that it is taking everything I have to leave Lorient at midnight, I'm having to navigate out via the light houses and buoys.

My wife will be gone for the weekend, and am looking forward to some involved and extended time with the game.

What you think we are!? lol

Commander Gizmo · 10-23-08, 12:36 PM

This mod adds so much to the game, but causes some problems too. Now my sky looks fabricated and the ships look like collections of pollygons. I think you just raised the bar TP!
