Default [REQ] water runoff...

okay, ive played SH4 a few times, and i saw something i thought was really cool.
ive noticed that in SH4 that when a large wave goes over the boat, when the wave clears, theres water running out of the limber holes in the side of the boat, is there any way that can be done in SH3?

its not really a request, but its an idea

I have zero modding skills, but if smoke can be made to come out the exhaust ports, why not something like the bow spray from the limber holes?

IMHO the SH4 run off looks awfull, if it can be done and look better then yes it would be great.

You all mean something like this:



I've been working on this for about a little over a week now on and off. Having trouble with it but hope to have the 'problem' figured out soon.

It's not porting really nicely from SH4 to SH3. There seems to be a controller that SH3 doesn't recognize. Currently it comes on for about 3 seconds when you first start the game and then nothing after that. I think I have a work around for it though. Will test in a couple of days.
The 'water runoffs' aren't in the correct locations either. I won't bother placing them in the correct location until I can get it working correctly.
