[WIP] Fix for Distant Ship Reflections

ddrgn · 04-07-10, 01:13 AM

I successfully removed those really pesky ship reflections seen from miles away.

Will wait for next patch, if not fixed by the devs will release this fix.

Anything they know we can fix, I doubt they will fix.

If only now we can remove the transparent waves in which you can see ships wakes right through them.

Maybe then I will get some sleep ;}

Does it keep reflections from close up?

Negative... that is something I am tinkering with. To be honest with you, I would rather not see any reflections than see a reflection of a boat 20km away well before I even see its smoke.

Yep, I could live without reflections, too, as you would see them only on a very calm sea anyway. If you look at photographs, you can see that they mainly appear on sunny and calm days.
