Does your last post mean that there's a new version of the mod? (numbering would help). If so, when did oyu release it?

Yes, there is a new version of the mod, but I have not released it yet, that is why I said I am getting close. I will probably be releasing it in the next day or two, I still want to test some stuff to make sure I got it right.

You are more than welcome. And, your timing is impeccable. I have released V1.0, link and details are on the first post.

I am gonna go get some sleep now, I only have a few hours until I am supposed to be getting back up. Enjoy folks.

Thx downloading now.

Looking great so far, though I do think the green is a bit much. From some digging online it seems most of the time the water's either a cyan or blue, only rarely a saturated green:

SteelViking is a super hero, he can read code at an uber speed, and able to leap from forum thread to forum thread in a single bound. And ironically, he controls time on the east coast, which is why I follow him on the these forums, so I can see how much time I will receive in any given day since I'm on the east coast too.

Great work Steel. You make me a happy submariner.

I am getting Large clumps of bubbles leaving Sub(about six bubbles but large insize) after your Mod is there anyway I can use your great underSea Mod with the fine bubbles I had before.Thanks for all your fine Mods.

That sounds like the right behavior, I basically set the generators to randomly produce little bubble clouds. But, the bubbles should look little. Have you installed any mods over my underwater mod that caused a JSGME conflict. If so, you need to disable them, and re-enable my mod last. The little jets of bubbles in stock are completely unrealistic.

@Sudo, thanks for the compliment, but I don't know if I am superman. However, I do control time The real reason I got the mod ready so quickly, is because I just stayed up until I finished it(ended up with about 3.5 hours of sleep in the process).

I know what you mean about little sleep. I did the same when Mafia II came out.

Hey SteelViking, I just tried the new version and really like what you've done to help reduce the underwater visibility, used TC to hurry up getting me into nighttime and appreciate the darker improvement there as well. Thank you for your work on this and it was well worth the wait.

I can't tell you how excited I was when I first realized that I had gotten the light level underwater to get darker at night. In stock, there was this little thing in the .cfg file that was totally unused(value 0), and TheBeast mentioned to me one day that it sounded like something used to change the light level underwater along with the time of day. Well, sure enough, with enough testing and adjusting I was able to get it to work. Yet another thing that was not finished by the devs. I am just happy that they put it in at all

I only tested it in shallow water, now I need go check it out at 200m. Oh yeah the plants looked better as well.

[Capt Jack Harkness]

You know, the interesting thing with this mod is that if you tweak the water to be more blue (currently I'm using 0R 6G and 5B) it actually turns greener as well as darker in the deeper depths.... Come to think of it, though, the green is theoretically from algae, right? Is there any way to make the green color fade to blue as you go deeper (algae needs sunlight to photosynthesize)?
