That's a nice boat you have there but I'm more interested in the lazer eye rangefinder!

I guess we'll apply water damping even for vehicles that do not have water box height defined ...

But the question is how do you get cars/planes to crash into the water and sink realistically.

Excellent update!!! :-)

Just wondering if the ships will eventually rock from side to side as well as back & forth?
Also will we be seeing animated humans any time soon?

Keep up the amazing work!

Is it possible to have a direct download link for the update? I've got some problems with auto-updates inside the game itself, so an independant .exe file will be welcome. Thanks  :)

Great update! Although I find the water a little too transparent. With waves like this you shouldn't be able to see much below the surface. Is there a way to reduce transparency in settings or is it permanent? And a foam texture would be nice in the future :)

@Krutan  The height or "Choppyness" of the waves has only a very small effect on the clarity of H2O.  Depending on the Circumstances you can see a submerged submarine from the air just fine.  It is nearly impossible to model all aspects of water.  There are just too many variables to this fluid emvironment.  I will agree that the current water rendering has a way to go in regards to wakes, foam, and even the overall pattern blending for that matter.  Making progress though!   ;)
