Yes it is a FPS killer but, with it off you still get some fog effect with limited sight. Not bad really IMO.

Looks fantastic Clear! Well done I'm really starting to get antsy now because I'm still waiting on RFB for 1.5, and RSRD for RFB. Oh well, I'll d/l, and keep it with the rest of my 1.5 mods in limbo.

That"s exactly what i dit in '74 AVG . This is the second ship i served on as a sailor before becomming a petty officer. It's a MSI (MineSweeper Inshore) of the Belgian Navy and called "Merksem"(a city in Belgium).

We had to navigate from Zeebrugge to Oostende (+-30 km with leaving and entering the port) alonge the shoreline of the cost.
I was ordered to take place on the bow with a mate and lissen for any noise of fishermen in theire little boats and foghorns .

From where we stude , we couldn't see the chart/radarroom (a few meters away) on the pic .

The tension was high on board i remember and it took us several houres (cant remember how many) to reach our destination save and sound .

Great mod W.Clear ! Like it verry mutch

Quick question while i'm posting : Dit addon +patch 1.5 solved the lightning ? I'm on a U-boot and a fleetboat patrol at the moment (MultiSH4) buth havend had thunder till now .

greetz all

I noticed a strange thing. During rainstorms with what my watch officer describes as 'heavy fog' my visibility is reduced to approximately 100 meters out,
yet during 'medium fog' I can't even see my watch crew! Is this the way it's supposed to work?

I like how the light fog is patchy. You actually feel like you're in a cloud, rather than a haze. With volumetric smoke and environmental effects, my fps dropped to about 20 with fog, though. On a sunny day it's around 38, which is an improvement over stock.

I noticed from an external view that the fog gets thicker as you go up in altitude. If you are at sea level, it's almost non-existent (in light fog, anyway).

All that we need, now, is a weather report mod for 1.5, unless one of the older ones will work?

I don't understand. Why MOD install in your game.
Heavy fog if visibility think picture of you the same, that wrong, unrealistic.

Heavy fog weather, is visibility like this?


Please look my game ,it's Heavy fog weather too.




Even in the stormy weather, visibility is like this picture.
