This is testing for Bubble,

Bubble this is what I mean by moonlight, not to be confused with halo. Now this is rather extreme, but you get the point.



If you have a good video card, the light looks fairly good, cheaper system and video card, the moon light will get some banding effect. This amount of light greatly increase visuals. I don't think you would see hardly any light where we are now, but may add some. Only downside is certain things really reflect, clothes, flags, etc.

Again, this is extreme, but to get the point. Notice reflection going to the horizon? Are you getting that or is the water only reflecting in the sub circle?
I can make the reflection wider, but keep light down, that may give a better chance of attacking with enemy behind moon.



I think this is where we are now. Little light on clouds. I attacked two ships, one about 2000 yards, another about 800, scoring hits on both. Closet escort about 1500 yards away.



I also don't like the clouds, er, that we're using at moment. I think clouds in game spawn almost like they're going in a circle over the horizon, instead of coming at you more flat like sh5....if that makes sense. You can spawn them where you want above the horizon. Now these are too high, but think something like about half way in between.



Anyway, I'm gonna do something like above, just lower and bigger more blurred clouds.

This is one of my old env mods, I liked these clouds, so will aim for this, but I'll leave sunset colors TMO.


Let me know about reflection and please post SS so I can see and what video card you have. I don't trust mine now.
