[WIP] Dynamic Environment SH5

whiskey111 · 02-27-12, 04:02 PM

I would ask you about how to install "Dynamic..." over DarkWraith MagnumOpus mega mod.
When I'm just enabling it I have very transparent sea (even with realistic version) and it's blue in Atlantic.

I do not instal the "shallow water patch" and water is still extremaly transparent.

I instal "Dynamic..." as the last mod, so it should overwrite all necessary files.

is a shallow water patch and a shallow water mod... and i think that efect of water is in another mod also.. ... could be in the one that add more ships... do not remember well

It seems I spoke too soon. Yes, with Sober's V6 Fog Mod it improved a lot, but I still have a lot of grey skies during the daytime (sunset and sunrise work just fine), even with the weather reported as no precipitation, no clouds and no fog:

It's not that it doesn't work for me, the sim is still beautiful and, oddly enough, during sunset, night and sunrise everything looks wonderful just the way I remember it, but during the daytime it's always this misty, bland meh...

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong here, although I've done all I could think of including modifying IRAI as Sober suggested and making sure that I'm using V6 of his fog mod (by the way, disabling that one doesn't change anything, it still looks the same. I tried, just to be sure), I just can't figure out where I'm going wrong, so any tips, hints or suggestions would be most welcome.

It's been suggested that it's something about DynEnv that's causing it since Real Env doesn't have that problem. If that's the case, then all I'd need to do would be to edit that little bit, because I certainly don't want to lose DynEnv entirely. It is absolutely GORGEOUS apart from that "grey issue."

I know only too well that azure skies over the North Sea aren't all that common, but they do happen and, considering how absolutely awesomely beautiful SH5 is, I'd love to see them every now and again. Or, to put it another way, when it isn't overcast and the game's fog setting is "0" as opposed to "1", "2" or "3", the blue sky ought, logically speaking, to be visible.

There's been some heated debate over this grey sky issue in an older thread (can't remember now which one), but to the only way I found to fix it - meaning to have the gorgeous overall environment of the DynEnv mod and the blue skies back - was to bring back via JSGME several environment files from the stock game: ClimateZones.cfg, ClimateZones.tga, and the three EnvColors (Polar, Temperate, Tropical). Just inserted them in my modsoup via JSGME, after DynEnv.

By doing this, I gave up the zillion climate zones of DynEnv, but now I have blue skies back again.

The problem resides in the association between climate zones and environment colors, as defined by DynEnv.
