[REL] Happy Water on GWX 3 16 km Atmosphere

Moin moin,

since this is my first post, a short introduction of myself:
my internet name is "sflo", I like flight sims and U-Boat
sims. My first U-Boat sim I played was "Gato", way back in the
80ies (something with 300x200 pixel B&W resolution).

I installed SHIII some weeks ago with GWX 3 Gold, and
had a lot,lot,lot of fun

Many thanks to the GWX creators !!!
... and also to other fantastic modders (LifeBoat-Debris,
etc. etc. etc).

The only thing I was a bit unhappy with was the "GWX water
at higher wind speeds".

I got a lot of good info and hints in this forum,
and also tried some water mods, but basically I took the
advice: "if it is not there, do it yourself".

So here is a small water-mod for GWX 3, which "I" realy
like and whichs gives "me" the "right feeling". And since I downloaded
so much from this community, I think it is fair to share the
results with you.

I know that waves influence sinking of ships, escort
behaviour, etc, but so far I realy enjoied it, and
you may want to giveit a try.

This mod is ONLY (!!!!) for : "GWX3_16km_Atmosphere"
So you can put this on top on your "GWX3_16km_Atmosphere"
installation, but not the GWX 3 stock.

I can also modify the scene.dat of the GWX 3 stock (next
week-end) if you like - or just do it by your own, all
changes I made are listed in the mods read-me).

Some notes:
I did also a (moderate) "Lod" and "patches" increase, so a bit
more CPU/GPU demanding. The "polygon" effects may
show, something I can live with, since I got "the right
feel of waves". Some foam tga files also included.

Well, waves are a matter oft "taste", so dont kill me if
you don´t like it. Since JSGME makes installing and de-installing
mods realy easy, nothing to loose here, only to win if
you like it.

So, that´s it. Good hunting,

Best wishes,
sflo
