No rain at all?

sergei · 03-28-10, 04:20 PM

I seem to get fog.
In vast month long patches.
Still, at least I get some variation.
It changes from light to heavy fog, then back again.
Hey WO, what's the weather like up there?
It's foggy sir.

I only seem to get medium fog, also for long periods of time. It's either clear or medium fog. And still no bloody rain!

I've had loads of rain, especially up around Scotland.

Why thank you sir!

It just bothers me that I've seen no decent storms with rain showers and clouds as black as asphalt.

You mean like these? To be fair that picture was Auto Tone/Color'd in Photoshop, here's the original untouched screen shot. (Erm, actually the "original" was taken a second later than the retouched one, but the clouds are the same. heh)

The only time I saw rain was when I loaded up a saved game. It was a bright, clear, sunny day with blue skies all around (as when I saved it), and yet the rain was pouring

I reloaded the same save game right away, and this time the rain was gone. Strange...

Otherwise, all I've seen is medium fog or reasonably clear weather. No overcast and no clouds. I think I saw that there is some seasonal variation set in the .cfg files, but November around Scotland ought to product some rain, really!!!

It is a quintessentially human propensity to seek patterns where only randomness exists

I've seen fog, wind and rain so heavy that the only way I could track a ship from 300m away was by following it's wake in the waves. Couldn't see the thing at all! Even after I accidentally hit it and it caught fire, I didn't see it til 100m away, glowing and on fire, faintly.

Yep, true enough

Based on the letters that hang below the line, (q y, p p y, p y) and their spacing within the sentence (long long, short short long, long long) it's clear that with your witty remark you're trying to say in Morse Code:

M U M

i experienced some spectacular storms with loads of rain in SH5. However, I'd say the rain is too large grained, and looks more like hail or sleet.

I had sunny weather, rain, fog, heavy fog with rain and rain outside my house while playing SH5. The only thing is: I like TMO for SH4 and THAT I can only find in SH4.

The rain in SH5 looks nice though.

TheBlobThing · 03-28-10, 05:25 PM

Well, seeing as I've never even seen pictures of the stuff in SH5 could any of you gents be persuaded to post a screenie?
