extreme waves (size and wavelength)

[Reece]

I wish someone like Oleg Maddox would do a sub sim.....sure it'll take about 6 years

And some ... I will have to see SOW to believe it!!
You are right Uber Gruber, with the external view is very important to me, for example:
The sea:
Wave textures (effected by wind), rolling, white caps etc.
Coloring - greens & blues, muddy, debris, seaweed etc
density below the surface
Fish and plants
The sky:
Clouds differing with the weather & speed depending on wind
Coloring depending on clouds & time of day
Wind, hopefully this effects the ships smoke as well.
Sun, size effected by position and horizon as well as coloring, bloom etc.
Stars
Lightning
And why not toss in the Northern lights!!
Well many other variables but all critical in the immersion factor!!
