REDEYE_CVW-66 Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Have any of you fond settings that work for this? I have tried increasing the wind up to ridiculous levels- the sea responds with waves but not the caps like in this vid: Let me know if you worked it out:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDEYE_CVW-66 Posted May 29, 2017 Author Share Posted May 29, 2017 High. Do you have to be some way out in the Channel to see them? A certain altitude? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlerkies Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I'll need to check when I get home, but with my settings they were more prominent from higher up, the closer you get to the water they seem to disappear a bit and that glassy effect comes back. Need at least 20+ knts of wind if not more from memory.

YoYo Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) We are aware and will be addressed. Thanks Thx Matt, very good news, this water isn't looks good honestly: no feeling of altitude too because there are no water details (settings high). On this video was ok: .

Ala12Rv-watermanpc Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 well, this is how a calm sea water looks like so its not looking bad...if you want more waves simply increase wind speed...something like 1 or 2 m/s makes a great difference but having the possibility to choose 0m/s and calm water is very nice!!

REDEYE_CVW-66 Posted June 1, 2017 Author Share Posted June 1, 2017 Yes it looks nice just above sea level. It is just the complete and total lack of texture and depth from a few hundred feet when eveything just turn into a deep, deep blue. (As opposed to previews). But we'll see what the next update brings- I'm sure it will be fine eventually:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ala12Rv-watermanpc Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I have no problems generating big white caps... just try with 20 to 30m/s and see what happens, maybe there is something wrong with your intall. About calmn water looking like a simple color with no texture I remember a friend who was a F5 pilot telling me how dangerous was flying and manouvering over the sea at certain conditions (most of them in fact) because of the lack of depth sense and references in the water... "you only see a blue plane" he told me... so this is how a calm sea looks at low level even... a different thing would be a shaky water full of waves what you can achieve increasing wind speed. But even shaky ocean will look mostly like a simple color high enough. anyway they are working on white caps to improve them and probably increase their visibility and rendering distance.

REDEYE_CVW-66 Posted June 2, 2017 Author Share Posted June 2, 2017 That is odd- because I set it to 50 kts and did not get caps. I saw another one posting about "white caps" just showing rolling waves- but I'll try again. My install appears fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs to be surface wind as well, not high alt, there are 3 settings from memory. just a quick look no frills.

Its not a glassy surface at 15-20m/s at least for me...I see many waves and such... That is odd- because I set it to 50 kts and did not get caps. I saw another one posting about "white caps" just showing rolling waves- but I'll try again. My install appears fine. This is how it looks to me at 25m/s, also you can see waves breaking in the coast As Vlerkies said, maybe you are increasing wind in the wrong layer...try the lower one...you should see them...but if you see the waves and not the white caps then I dont know wht to say tbh...

Vlerkies Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 20 m/s near the ground??? It kills take off's! LOL. The wind speed required to whip the ocean up a little is a bit excessive imho.

BaD CrC Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Guys, I am not sure you can appreciate the total awesomeness of this map and the love put into all the details unless you are flying a chopper (most of the screenshots I can see are taken at high altitude and/or high speed). Water, when it's a bit windy, is the most incredible feature I have seen. I can't believe that anyone would say it is not looking good, unless of course, if they are flying only high and fast, in which case, is a waste for such a beautiful map (with collideable trees, yeaaah!):):thumbup: https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDEYE_CVW-66 Posted June 7, 2017 Author Share Posted June 7, 2017 I totally agree it looks good down low, especially when its rolling like in your pic. The technology is there and working and holds great promise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reflected Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I've also been fiddling with this in the ME, and I agree that the wind needed to produce waves/ white caps is waaaay to much. At 8-10 m/s we should already see at least some effects. Facebook Instagram YouTube Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Hargreaves Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Yeah, 20m/s is about 45mph, I don't think I'd fancy flying around in that sort of wind, but I'd like to appreciate the eyecandy of those lovely waves. +1 for a bit more waves at a bit lower wind speed. i7-7700K/Gigabyte RTX2080/Win10 64bit/32Gb RAM/Asus Xonar DX+Sennheiser HD380pro headphones/LG 34" UM65 @2560x1080/TM Warthog+VKB MkIV Rudder pedals/Rift CV1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
