Default Lightning SS's

Never see it but one place in campaign mode, under the same conditions, but found some more. Had the cams off, so had to use boat cam and so slow, so just got a few...hard to catch it to take a SS, so just have to keep hitting pause until you catch it which blurs the picture a lil..

As for as I know it's never worked right in campaign mode, although modders have tried to correct it to work during storms. I've seen it several times in single player, just only in one place in campaign mode. Don't know if others have seen it elsewhere in campaign mode...as far as I know not. I never see it anywhere but one bay.

Yep, actually seeing the lighting was a mystery in SH4.

What's strange, I thought it came in different sizes, sometimes looks big, sometimes small, but it stays fixed in on position. The closer you get, the bigger it gets...If you get right under it, it will take over the entire screen.
Looks really cool, look up and see nothing but a lightning cloud.
