What can be this graphical problem?

I think it is a know incompatibility issue between the buggy SHIII shadows (disabled by default with patch 1.4b) and normal maps used on crew models.

And can i do something to solve it?
Could it be also related to volumetric clouds WAC have?
It could be linked to an external environment (always on deck but never other place) that my GC doesn’t like...

The strange thing is it didn’t affect the game at first, but sometime later on second or third patrol, not that often at start but suddenly more and more to the point at each time i go on deck

You should ask Hans, but provided that my guess is correct, I am afraid that the one solution would be disabling the dynamic shadows (as in unmodded SHIII v1.4b). Try reading this thread:

That's odd indeed. Might it be because of a weather/season change from your first patrol?

Incredible...

My computer has 2 drives, one SSD and one traditional mechanic.
I made a full reinstall this time not on the SSD but on the other one, and result is good!!!
(Exact same installation, same mods order)

So far no graphical issue, and i even have splendid sun back!!
I had the golf ball sun on the SSD with the same settings

I am definitely a computer’s mysteries subscriber and don’t understand lot of strange thing happening sometime...

Anyway i keep my fingers crossed, and see if everything keeps going well along the patrols coming

Whatever the problem was, I am glad that now it is gone

I believe you have to turn off paintball mode.

Have to say it’s completely solved now, WAC is running as it should and it has never been so nice.
This is the best SH3 to me even though it gave me so many troubles
