the other day I was working on one of the seabed textures coming with this mod, so I had a closer look to stock dds. Do you want to know what did I discover?

Seaplant textures used in vanilla game are actually cold water aquarium plants. Here you can see an image I prepared comparing some of the plants used in stock game and pictures of their aquarium counterparts:

As you can see by yourself, there's no space for any doubt about what I am stating.

Now, I know that complaining about the state of the game as it was out of the box has become lately a sort of national sport in this forum. This attitude by gamer and modders who bought the game is understandable, but we have to be positive. Having said so, I don't want to keep going at the devs, after all this is not the worst blunder by them, but the least we can say is that these guys had to be in a serious hurry for releasing the game, and probably someone/something forced them to do it before the planned release date.
