Yes, on specific locations only (canals, lakes, etc...), but I strongly doubt that the sea depth has been corrected everywhere... . For example, the depth of the Atlantic ocean : you can now see the central rift on the map, but it's not modelled at all on SH3 3D terrain !

You should understand that SH engine does not allow to create 100% real world. But this time we will be closer to reality even with SH Engine limitations...

1. Yes, I know that SH3 engine is limited and that we have a "polygonal" aspect.

2. You have to zoom enough to see if depth has really been modified.

For example, I've modified the sea depth near Brest harbour to fit real values :



Original (stock) terrain :



To do only this part of the map, it took me at least 10 hours (including research time). And it's still far from perfect (main limitation is to find precise depth maps online...).

Ok astvitaliy1982 spent a lot of time with different maps and did hard work to make the depths closer to reality. So I don't understand what do you want to say. Why did you give those exaples to me? I believe that his work is almost perfect.

I'm the first to say that his work is excellent.

I just want to point out the fact that depth colors shown on map (at low zoom levels) are not necessarily corresponding to the real 3D terrain of SH3...

When using the H,sie and Stiebler option selector exactly which options do you select and which ones do you leave alone.

SH3 exe is already patched with these options:
