[REL] KZS Hull Wetness for U-Boats

[tonschk]

Thank you kapitan_zur_see , I have a suggestion, if is too complicated to adjust the change the hull from wet to dry (and dry to wet) , another possibility can be to give a overall permanent wet/gloss look of the entire hull, in my opinion this possibility is better than the stock full matt/dry hull




I am trying to enable the wet Hull Mod , at the moment the hull is still dry

The effect is there, I can see some part of it. Your camera position is simply far too much above the sub for the effect to occur... Get your camera just a little above water (as if it was on it nearly). Look at the succesfull screen shots, they're All taken this way. You must be slightly under the hull or at same level most of the time and only then will you be able to find correct camera angle vs sun position. Physics are physics ;-)

Try to mimic our screenshots

Thank you , I will check it again wright now

Not wet yet, may be because I dont use the mega opus Mod and/or I still use the stock user interface, who knows ?

[kapitan_zur_see]

Try it when the sun is rather low on the horizon. At dusk/dawn, or evening or morning time. Avoid right in the afternoon, when the sun is high

Hi, Kapitan! I have some missunderstanding - to install mod 'on top' means to install before MO and NewUI (on the top of the mod-list) or after (to overwrite/replace the files)? Sorry for stupid question, I'm not too much experienced in english I've tried both variants, didn't mention any difference

[kapitan_zur_see]

It means to install last, after All these mods, bot before or you'll see nothing

[tonschk]

I think the wet is not there, but I am not sure

[kapitan_zur_see]

Are you running the game on the highest setting? Shouldn't the sun cast god rays and gives a bloom effect? Could be the answer...

[tonschk]

Hello, thank you for the help, I have a ASUS EAH5870 V2 with all the graphic settings at highest resolution, the sun is just a bit covered by the clouds, I will post my enabled Mods, thank you

[tonschk]

Hello there , do you think the lack of magnum opus or the lack of the User interface modifications can be the reason your wet hull Mod is not working ?

[kapitan_zur_see]

probably not...
Soon as I get back to the computer, I'll send you a little modified test version. Gotta have to find something where you just can't miss the effect. So we'll know for sure

single mission PQ-17 (7c type sub) is working 100%, sub have allready the right heading, you just need to look on the port side (left) of the sub, 90 deg.

[kapitan_zur_see]

Thanks stormfly

Thank you very much for your help , I think the metal surface of the U-Boat with a wet or gloss/shiny effect give a much more " alive " inmersion feeling , do you think is possible for you in the future to release a optional version of this wet hull Mod with the whole exterior surface of the U-boat showing a permanent gloss/shiny effect ?, I just used the word permanent because I understand that can be difficult to connect this wet effect sincronised with the weather and other atmospheric conditions, thank you again
