still polygon effects on gwx 3.0
I have huge polygon effects on waves so i'm afraid that something did turn that fix off? I have no any mod except gwx 3.0...
anyone had same problem? Or i must install olc mod separately? |

you need to install GWX-16k athmosphere. This is a modified version of, OLCE2 with less polygons.

Even with the 16km Atmosphere the polygons will still be there. I'm afraid Kpt. Lehmann exaggerated (IMO) the effectiveness of the polygon "fix" (read: reduction) that I did for GWX3.

You know this 'polygon' problem?,do you all mean the tearing effect usually noticeable on the water near the horizon line?,like white vertical lines that sometimes seem to flash on and off? Funny you should mention this,I was JUST about to do a thread on this before I saw this thread.I seem to have just started noticing it tonight,but it has probably been there from the start,as its not THAT prominent unless looking for it.
I also have 16k atmosphere enabled.

The waves in the game have certain proportions where there more free of that effect. Sadly that is not always the idea look for them
One of the environment mods that gives this a better solution IMHO is Manos Environment Pro v1.1 (Which is based in OLCE). Try it and see if it gets better.

the most easy thing is to make the colors darker (and will look much beatyfuller) but when these polygons show up it returns only to an ungly thing.and they will show up for sure. the way of 'hiding' the problem with colours is tottaly wrong.i have seen the game to handle reflections properly to all conditions of weather and time,but some values are changing and the reflection is screwed. if we find this value(values) and 'lock' them ,the problem will be tottaly eliminated.i thought that the problem was the changing of wind direction.i managed to lock the wind direction but it didn't work. now i am convised that the solution is hiding at the ROTATION of the SEA. but ,although i tried hard to locate where these values are ....didn't find them.maybe if the rotation of sea is 'locked' will do the trick! the real challenge is to beat this issue.colours is easy then to be setted and you will see real good colours i still waiting someone to have a look at this. maybe some day...

not at all. i am saying that i was forced to follow this path ('hiding' the problem with colors) ,although i still till today think is tottaly wrong way ,becuase i didn't suceed to solve the problem at his base (my efforts was focused to the points i am describing right after the sentence of mine that you quote)
the reason of my post is exactly all that follows the sentence you quote.as the game can run without the reflection to be screwed...there must be a way to run always without screwing it.if this is located then the problem will be tottaly eliminated. that's all.
