Corrigan Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 For comparisons, make sure you use similar conditions. But yes, new water is gone. I assume they couldn't make it work.

Rusty_M Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I thought it was only removed from low water settings. Is the new water not still in "High"? The world is going mad. Me? I'm doing fine! http://www.twitch.tv/rusty_the_robot https://www.youtube.com/user/RustyRobotGaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JABO2009 Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 I thought it was only removed from low water settings. Is the new water not still in "High"? tried it with high settings, and the water is still bright... ED pls change again into DARK water !

Time of day, season and altitude are the difference between your pictures. Match those in game and the sea will be the same.

Nate--IRL-- Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 so thats what was killing frame rates the wave actions ic now. least they kept the better water color for now. Water colour never changed. Just the texture/pattern used for the waves.

Corrigan Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 so thats what was killing frame rates the wave actions ic now. least they kept the better water color for now. I suppose. They've changed building LoDs also, so that was a factor too. if anything the wave animation is still way to fast. I agree.

NRG-Vampire Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Water colour never changed. Just the texture/pattern used for the waves. Nate So can we get back the "Improved water effects" as Wags wrote before in the 1.2.1 updates list ? or any chance to get newer side-patches (files) with the reverted improved water effects ? :thumbup: because i thnk ED changed the DLLs too - (not only textures, FXOs, FXs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilBivol-1 Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 The designers are continuing to work with water effects to try and find a solution that looks better and has minimal impact on performance. - EB [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Nothing is easy.

diveplane Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 hoping we can get water with white caps out in the ocean, high winds = more wave heights and water motion. https://www.youtube.com/user/diveplane11 DCS Audio Modding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
