Do you tink is possible to reduce such " area of the terrain " from let say 100 meters square to 10 meters square ? ,or in other words increase somehow the resolution of such mean depth calculation ?

If you stay long enough under water with the external camera you can see how the sea floor will change. Rocks appear and disapear, same with the algae trees and even the floor level will change time by time. Happened to me once when I was hovering the sea floor at 15m and sudden my crew started to shout that the hull is damaged and we hit the ocean floor. More than that, you can dive with the camera into the ground, same as the sunk ships do after a while.

And this is the 5th version of SH, not the first one... go figure :S

That's all ?!?

TheDarkWraith or somebody else, aren't you going to produce & publish some better sub ".zon" files ?

I mean, even if the bottom depth isn't very precise, I suppose it should be easy to obtain a much better compromise, than what we get with the actual stock settings.

Why don't you have a go at modding it instead of ordering the modders to work?

He robbo180265,

Keep it cool and read better next time !!!

I don't ordered anything to anybody. I just asked if some of the involved modders in this thread, had the intention to continue doing something about that problem. I was just very surprised that this very promising story finished so abruptly. This is why I asked.

I am not going to re-invent what TheDarkWraith already founded & imagined himself. What I have done instead, is to correct the ClimateZones.tga file of the W-clear Environmental mod (see here: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...&postcount=895 )

And you, by the way, what have you done for the community ?

Whatever.

Actually I'll add that I don't play SH5 anymore, you will however find many threads where I've praised Modders, helped members with problems with the game etc etc - so if its a p*ssing contest you want...

In fairness to Robbo, ACSoft's post did ring a bit like 'Bring me my wine'. I believe that it was not intentional, but it came off that way none-the-less.

Please, add to your list of brillant actions for the community "Giving lessons to other", "Writing vulgar provocations" like your actual "if its a p*ssing contest you want".

OK Robbo,

Apparently, we both have a "sensitive trigger" !!!

Me too, I positively don't want to be pulled into a flame war.

I admit that my question about what you have done for the Community, was an "arrow" in exactly the same "style" of your advise to me, to start doing a mod myself instead of "ordering" to modder's. Reading your reaction, it had, apparently, produced the same effect on you than your message on me !!!

So accept my appologize for this inapropriate question.
