Weather... again...

Victor Schutze · 03-10-12, 01:31 AM

There is a mod that cuts the duration of bad weather.
I don't recall it's name though. I am on the road and don't have my sh3 comp with me.

Someone else may help...

I must be the only person that has no problem with the weather in the game. It is more realistic than you think, bad weather is very common in the North Atlantic and where I live, and can last a long time.

...my thoughts exactly Kafka BC

it is the northern hemisphere after all and the north atlantic is notoriously wicked with the weather. in fact i whish the weather could be moddled even heavier since having seen it in documentaries and film footage. i think the weather in SH3 is great i just whish i could encounter some fog. i think in the six years playing this sim i have hardly ever run into it: whish there was a fog mod

It may be only my impression, but I find that there seem to be seasonal periods in the game as well (and I don't use SH3 Commander for this, before anyone asks). If I start a patrol in August or September (Gale and Hurricane season) I will nearly always have bad weather for most of my patrol. Fall and Winter are usually bad, in Spring and early Summer I sometimes can go a whole patrol with sunny skies.

I wish something could be done with the fog too, I encounter fog in the game, but not under the right circumstances, you should be able to have very heavy fog when the seas are calmer and not heavier. I consider the heavy fog you get with 15m/s winds as the effects of drizzle and rain which also cuts down visibility.

+1-my thoughts exactly.
Well said.

Victor here is right. Lenght of bad weather periods are editable too. NYGM has built in weather fix.

There's also JSGM ready weather fix for those without nonstarforce SH3.
