Shakey Water

Radtgaeb · 05-09-07, 02:58 PM

Is anyone else experiencing some anomoly where the ocean waters seem to be....shivering, or something? I'll cut to external View and the water will be trembling. Could be a TC glitch or something, but then again, might not...anyone?

yup, I've had that, normally after a period of high time compression. I put it down to my computer trying to catch up with itself........

I see it frequently. I dont think it has anything to do with TC, my comp is caught up when I see it... The water in general has issues IMO.

It seams like an ATI video card issue. I have a question . In 1.2 I can start the game with out the disk before this I could not. I can say for cretins that I do not have any cheats just patch 1.2. So do I need to reinstall or just play with as is?

Radtgaeb · 05-09-07, 03:29 PM

No, not just ATI. I'm running a fairly new Nvidia 7900 GTX.

Well, a large majority here not cretins but I guess your game might start the protection program if not initiated with the disc. Your game might do some weird things at this point. Only way to find out is to run the game.

ROLFL! I'm not a cretin! Honest!

I've had the jello water at various times whether started from disc, single player, multiplayer and both ATI and Nvidea users. Doesn't happen very often and when it does it doesn't last long then goes away.

Nope, I've got a Nvidia 8800GTS and I spotted this strange happening when I was about to dock at my base..

I have seen this, I to think it is a water\game issue, not a system-related one.

The water is shivvering because...... It's COLD !

Elder-Pirate · 05-09-07, 07:48 PM

Sorry,but I have never seen this so called "shiver" of the waters even after a high TC and jumping to F11 or the . and or , key. Not to say it has never happened in my Sim,but that I have never seen it.I'm running this Nvidia 7800GS OC 256mb card and 3 Gigs memory on the Motherboard. Mods are at a minimum ( all small ones ) for now as I'm waiting for final patch,then I'll add the big mods. It is possible that a mod somewhere may be conflicting and maybe making this happen. Just a thought.

The only time I get this is after a high TC run.

vindex · 05-09-07, 09:47 PM

I get it after high TC run sometimes. I have the very latest Nvidia card and I always start the game with the CD in. It is a game issue not a system issue.

Having said that, it always goes away after I switch screens a few times. It's like the white flashes ... I don't like it, but I can suspend my disbelief.

I see the "shivering water" too (using a Radeon X1650).

But there is a way to get the water back running: press Ctrl+N
This is probably a debugging shortcut the devs forgot to take out. It seems to reset the weather values, and the clouds and water start moving again.

I get the same, high TC and water shimmers...sometimes but not all the time. Now, I tried this Ctrl N keys last night and my clouds did start moving fast. I took no notice of the water though...I will next time will. Next shimmering episode and I'm trying the Ctrl/N key to see what happens.
