ill quote the manual for ya since you dont have one handy

ENHANCED DAMAGE EFFECTS

This option adds several effects intended to better simulate the effects on surface ships of hits by bombs, and torpedoes, including:

*oil slicks and trails
-large oil slicks and oil trails in the path of damages ships esxpecially tankers
-oil slick color is now less violet colored and closer to the real color of oil

*fired and explosions
-reduced some of the impact of fires on display FPS rates compared to stock SH3
-Corrected the stock SH3 bug with catastrophic aircraft explosions, small firesm and depth charge detonations
-more splinters in explosions with splinters and more explosions featuring splinters in general
-large secondary explosions
-improved fire and smoke effects
-more below water explosion effects and bubbles as ships sink

*sound effects
-all fires have sound effects
-you can hear fires in large damaged ships though the hydrophone in some conditions
-added and adjusted some new sounds for explosions

Note: these effects will not always appear since the effect depends on where you hit the target ship

I hit a tanker once and the oil slick caught fire along with the tanker. Although a frame killer, it was spectacular
