I am with you She-Wolf.

I have a gameing machine (Alienware) with a heavy duty
graphics card and I havn't seen any of that.

His posting was very eloquent and well done. My graphic
card did pick that up.

When I see your avitar I think of your lost friend.

Best of Holiday wishes.

I can tell you, there' no leafs floating in the water. I think he mistook the rippled reflection of the ground on the water as "leafs floating in the shoreline".

ah, Laufen, yes, Maisie my avatar - like bits of me are missing it is. I have her pic on my desktop and talk to her... people who haven't enjoyed the fellowship of a furry friend might think that 'sad', but - well, many will understand.

So you have not seen the leaves or the wrecks either - well, that makes me feel a bit better. However, if it's out there, I want to see it too! I shall try SH3Commander when I have a few minutes to spare, see if that helps

OH! Dowly - really? No leaves?... mmm, yes, I can see how one might make that mistake. Well, that's one down...

Atleast I havent seen any.

As for the wrecks, the last time I played SHIII (I think that was GWX2.0), the ship wrecks did sink to the bottom and stayed there for a minute or so before disappearing.

Dont know if the GWX team added barrage ships to the training mission. But the normal sunken ships usually disappear pretty quickly.

Lol, just trying to be of help.

One more thing that came to my mind about the normal ships sinking to bottom (not 100% sure about this, just somehow I recall this happening). At times, the ship might get kind of stuck to a slightly 'wrong' angle, making it constantly move very slightly on the bottom, thus making the game believe that the ship hasnt reached the bottom yet (or the depth limit the game has when a submarine/ship disappears when it reaches it, i think it's 500m or so.), so the ship is laying in the bottom longer than usual. Tho, in this case, you should hear creaking sounds as the ship constantly scratches the bottom as it slightly moves. :hmm:

Ships that sink in water less than 30m will remain rendered.



That's another one down
