Water Detail Texture Size

[Broadside uda Barn]

In the texture info setting of the graphics menu, there is an option for

"Water Detail Texture Size:"

I have mine set to 3 as per HBs setup.

 

What does this do? Would putting it up a few notches give better

water reflections, texture, etc?

BuB, I have played with those settings quite a bit with no real difference that I can see. The bigger difference has been when I try some of the other water textures available. For instance, the blue, calm sea patch that I am using for the Dardanelles missions is quite nice.

 

Cheers!

Where did you get the water patches/mods you are speaking of? The Dardenelles Mod rolling swells ocean looks marvelous.

OlPaint,

 

I am pretty sure I am using the calm sea files from this pack download:

jUK Sea Water Files

 

There are a few other interesting CFS3 items on the Combat Flight Center download pages that might work well in some OFF missions. Enjoy.

 

Cheers!

Shaders in CFS3 are DX7.0 so nothing changes that.

 

Water Detail texture size affects the scale/size of the 'waves'
