The video in the OP shows a lot more than a screenshot would.

I'm so torn on this.. lol

I really like the big beautiful blue transparent waves when unmodded.
But i really like the realistic ship bobbing and slower waves in this mod.

But tbh the wave heights are too low, it looks silly in the middle of the atlantic with a few ripples at 0m/s, there's still turbulence and currents forming waves irl. It almost looks artificial how calm it is sometimes.

And the ocean is just darker for some reason, maby because of the sub-surface scattering, with lower waves there's less "potrouding water" to get light shining through it?
I wish there was a version that ONLY changed the ship / wave motions, not the height or strength of the waves or anything else.

This mod has the side effect of stopping you from being able to get depth under the keel reports using the new interface . Just to let you know.

Released a new version now with tweaked sim files from all uboats which should improve roll and pitch further.
Link on the first thread!

As far as I can tell that this mod really changes how the submarine rides on waves, but it is very difficult to see changes in the waves themselves. However I take your word on it. ^.^

I really like how much less time the submarine spends with its screws out of the water or bouncing upward after a wave like it does in stock. Also the waves don't seem to cover the bridge as much since the boat doesn't bob up and down (at 1000tons, you'd think it'd be hard to move) like it does in stock.

I don`t know if anyone mention that but when I go to periscope depth "P" sub "falls down" to about 20m and then slowly emerges to 15 meters.

Baleur · 03-08-10, 04:02 PM

I just compared the seaparameters.cfg file to the original, just to see what changes u made.
I cant notice a single change?

I guess the magic lies in the .sim files? It looks great ingame

Which new interface? I use the 3 dials ones and get depth reports (enabled via another mod) just fine while using this mod.

Great work Han!

Im using The DarkWrith's latest UI ... when I deactivated this mod again my Depth under the keel reports started working again.

I've had frequent cases where I lose all voice commands and message log entries. Was that happening to you as well? Like you'd press 2 for slow ahead and you wouldn't hear any voices confirming the change?

Excellent work Hansolo, nice to see youve taken an interest in SH5, loved your work on 3 with WAC, well done mate.

Thank you much for this great mod, but I also cannot "keep" the depth, e. g. when I dive to ordered 40 meters the sub hangs to the back trying to keep depth of 40 meters but still goes further down.
After disabling the mod in the modenabler all has a fine behavior again.

But, I am so keen on using this mod in a final version!

Many thanks again for your time for this!
