[WIP] SH-5 Water for GWX 3.0 V0.11 20 Km V32+ - Page 2

The rainscene is a very difficult one to mod because:

What looks great today, looks ugly tomorrow

I created a lot of prototypes - sometimes looking very spectacular - which all violate this rule. The other point is that this scene actually is three scenes in one: cloudy, fog and rain.

It looks great. I hope that in the near future mod will be ready.

Thorn,

Before Christmas, and still on schedule!

rik007, in previous version sea and sky look a bit too yellow (too warm). Will you plan to change colour palette in incoming version?

Hi Jaxa. The yellow has been reduced in the afternoon scene:

Afternoon scene in V10 of the mod

Same situation in the upcoming V11. Notice that at Windspeed=0 M/s you will still have waves in V11 as in reality the oceans are about restless.

And it can be greyed out further:

Same scene after applying 40% grey on it:

I use a model for this which alters the game files directly:

Hope you like the V11 version though!

Looks a lot better now.

Yeahh... it is better. I feel like putting an optional with the release version for the anti yellow-fellows.

Jimbuna · 12-10-12, 04:05 PM

Prima

jaxa · 12-11-12, 12:44 AM

The last screenshot looks very good, it should be the proper one for final release imho.

Hitman · 12-11-12, 02:05 PM

Of course this is always a matter of personal taste, but I must say that while I prefer other environment mods for the day scenes, the way Rik did the nights and the storms is my preferred one. The screens from the last version just take this one step further

rik007 · 12-11-12, 03:24 PM

This version is a step forward I think also in day scenes. The colors which I apply are derived from reality. The yellow in the afternoon can be seen be everyone. I will include two version for the afternoon and see what happens.

Indeed it is taste and there are only three wheathertypes to edit. In reality the number of situations is unlimited.
