[WIP] Longer wake.

EDIT/ This Project Is Terminated

Hi Folks.

Ive seen in various threads that people want a longer wake mod so i started to look at the files and found out its possible to do.

However it will take quite some time to do cuz i have to go through every ship to test and tweak, test and tweak

I wanted longer wake for my self and i was not satisfied how they looked ingame, they where short and to much "milk" in them.

But i didnt want them to long either cuz that wud be a real performance hit.
So far i think i can make the wakes to be about 4-6 times longer than stock and also more transparent so the "milk" effect is reduced.

But every wake will be tested so they fit each ship.

The mod will be based on the ships that comes whit TMO and RSRDC and will be compatible cuz there is only one file that i need to change and that file only affect the wake and nuthing els.

It will be JSGME compatible also.

A small screen teaser for you

Here is stock wake for a AUXsubchaser.

Here is the modded version:

And here is another view from an destroyer.

From the last picture you can se the bow wake and the prop wake. I will try to make them more transparent also so they fit into the rest of the wake. But for that i must ask for permission to use thos files cuz they are made from some other excellent modders.
But more on that later

Vikinger.

ps: I estimate the time to finish this of to about a week since there are so many files to go thorugh.

Looks very nice to me!

Hint: Never announce a time frame for finishing any work, 1st because you'll never know, and 2nd you'll get repeated questions why it ain't released yet.

Yeah it will be fully compatible whit the Envirovment mods.

It is only 1 file i need to change in every ship/sub folder and that is the .val file and that file Only handle the wake. So it will not affect anything els.
