Is there a fix for the bad wakes or whatever it is!

After losing the external camera key F11, I discovered it changed to Alt-F11, who knows!

The following is a snapshot of the horrid wakes or bilge water pumped out or what ever they are supposed to be:

The overall graphics in SH4 is poor IMO, SH3 is much better!

Is there a fix to get rid of these lousy effects?
Thanks.

That's water running off the inner hull - it's actually pretty close to accurate. Just needs to be a little more...ummm...'solid' looking? I mean, it is kinda cheesy looking at the moment, but the concept is right.

Bumping this because it IS a good idea to improve the shader, here - anyone working on this?

It is a great little feature but needs some clearing up for sure

I don't know about SH3 looking better than SH4 though ...

A bad Wake is, when there is no drink left ..

Is it possible to import SH3 water textures (and files) to replace those in SH4?

Yours, Mike
