[REL] Dynamic Environment SH5

You cannot enable North Atlantic Green on top of Dynamic Environment, but you can replace DynEnv's color settings with the ones of North Atlantic Green, if you prefer them.
North Atlantic Green should only affect underwater colour anyway

Under some circumstances, underwater color can get partly visible through the surface. Anyway, as I said before, I am pretty sure that those screenies were taken with DynEnv enabled. Activate the main mod with neither of the 'no murky water' patches, stay in the Baltic, and towards the sunset you will get about the same colours as seen in the pictures below

I have no idea about the wave mod used though.

ScaleNormal= ?
BumpScaleU= how many times waves' bump map (which file is that?) is sampled over a square of sea surface (in width) (?)
BumpScaleV= how many times waves' bump map is sampled over a square of sea surface (in length) (?)
NormalSharpness= ?
BumpScale= the size of the sea surface square that the bump map is sampled on (in game units?)
BumpStrength= bump map sharpness?
FarWavesScale= this could be a wave scale (X, Y, and Z) modifier, applied to waves far from player's sub (?)
FarWavesStrength= this could be a wave strength (the force applied to seagoing vessels) modifier, applied to waves far from player's sub (?)
FresnelBias= applies to water reflections
FresnelPower= applies to water reflections
LargeWavesArmonics= max number of large waves travelling in a string (?)
LargeWavesCoef= Drag coef. introduced to the vessel when it hits large wave, O-no drag, 1- shiping goes nowhere...
SeaSpeed= how fast waves are travelling compared to wind speed (?)
WaveChoppinessFactor= self explanatory
ReflectionIntensity= self explanatory
ReflectionDeformation= self explanatory
TransparencyDistance=? Transparent water distance from the players view . Wider or narrower view . When looking over the side of the sub you could make the water transparent 18 mts deep by a few meters wide etc . or 25 mts deep x 100 meters wide view . You will get the same view with external camera . stoianm did a transparent water altering the shaders but that made the entire water transparent .
TransparencyDistanceUnder= ? Transparent water distance from the players view . Depth of transparency .
SpecGlossiness= specular reflections glosiness
SpecIntensity= specular reflections strength
SpecSpread= specular reflections angle of spread (?) shape of specular glossiness http://stevesfsxanalysis.wordpress.c...lour-of-water/
UnderSpecGlossiness= ?
UnderSpecIntensity= ?
ExtraSpecGlossiness= ?
ExtraSpecIntensity= ?
ExtraSpecSpread= ?
HeightColorFactor= ? You can give the trough of waves a darker appearance giving the impression of depth . Too much and it looks terrible

Small digression...

Ok, I have to say that I'm blind. Re-read the main post three times now, and all I see are the 'patches' and add-ons "to be enabled after the main mod", but I can't seem to find that "main mod" anywhere at all.

From downloads, link should work i hope

Hi, where i can change water colours? and what program i need, pls help me.

Hi, where i can change water colours? and what program i need, pls help me.

data\Env\EnvColors_xxx.cfg

Texteditor like notepad.exe


i.e.

WaterLightColor=71ACF500
WaterDarkColor=9141F00
UnderwaterFogColor=1F354000
UnderwaterUpColor=71C2B00
UnderwaterUpAlpha=0.500000
UnderwaterDownColor=1141700
UnderwaterDownAlpha=0.800000
WaterTintColorMulti=C0C9D100
WaterFoamFilmColorMulti=7EAB9700

But how i'll know what is colour what?

[Echolot]

But how i'll know what is colour what?

Do a internet search for "color code".

You mean the color code, the region, time of day?

Or this:

WaterLightColor=
WaterDarkColor=
UnderwaterFogColor=
UnderwaterUpColor=
UnderwaterUpAlpha=
UnderwaterDownColor=
UnderwaterDownAlpha=
WaterTintColorMulti=
WaterFoamFilmColorMulti=

?

When I would start to experiment with it, I would do that without installed environment mod.

I like this MOD with a few exceptions

Contrast is to bright - Used Sobers Contrast to fix
Underwater is to clear - Made new Impurity.dds to fix
Water is way to clear when viewed from above water surface.

@Gap
I made a new Impurity.dds for DynEnv 2.9 with no Artifacts or other junk floating in water.
You can add to MOD no credits required.

What can be done so water surface is not so clear?

DynEnv v2.9 - Impurity v1 light No Artifacts.rar
Underwater view distance is approximately 300m depending on Weather and Light.

Regards!

No Artifacts or other junk floating in water. Thanks!

Wow this must have been hard work to do this Mod. I have only one problem, when in bad weather every thing is over bright and I cannot even see to walk on my own sub. Everything is grey/green. inside the sub it looks right.

Thanks again for all the hard work that make SH5 a nice sim.

As far as I can remember, you are the first user reporting such a problem. Could be a mod incompatibility, or an incompatibility with your GFX card.

For a start try posting your mod list and a screenie showing the problem. They might help tracking it down.

Or even uninstall you GPU driver and download a new one
