This MOD is very generous for visible range in respect to those area's.

Yes, as you move North or West accross the Altantic, the water begins to clear up and change color but the game, as far as I can tell, does not allow to MOD a changing under water color.

You can always have multiple underwater FX MOD's that you can change for the area of opperations for your current campaign.
I was not saying anything about the visibility levels..... I actually agree with you there , mate. Just colour. Im sure the seas and oceans around the globe look different under the surface depending on the light and the region BUT I wouldn't want a mod that just made the ocean look green ... everywhere around the world. That's all.

I also agree that you can change your mod -- depending on where you are in the world. It is indeed good to have choice! But green underwater for all oceans in the game... its not for me. Thats all.









These, to me, just highlight the variety of colours you can get under the water... and that's really what I meant with my first post. Everything green (regardless of location) seems too simple. But Im sure lots of people will love your mod... I respect anyone who puts hard work into helping the game.

I am working on it but it is very time consuming. It requires game restart every time to view/verify changes. So it is going to take some time if it is even possible at all.

I am very picky so we are talking about many many game restarts.

1.1 - Surface weather condition does effect underwater visibility now.
Night visibility is reduced even more as water gets darker when the Sun goes down.
Thank You man !
