Agracier: What water mod are you using, and what is the corresponding conf.ini file water value # ?
Are conditions set to hazy in the screen caps?
I have Carsmasters water mod and landscape set to perfect, weather conditions set to "good" gives the ocean a
oily effect, the only way I get white caps in the Pacific it to set weather conditions to "hazy" or "poor" -
White cap waves should be plentiful when conditions are set to "good"
I have carsmasters animated water mod indeed. But don't ask which version as there are so many ... it's one of the latest in any case and it has 254 files in the 'animated' folder. Maybe that can help you identify the version. I believe it is a 512 version. I have 8 different animated water folders with the other 7 commented out.
My weather is indeed set to 'hazy' in the screencaps and all my other graphics settings are set to highest possible setting.
Here are my conf.ini settings:
VideoSetupId=3
Water=4
Effects=2
ForceShaders1x=0
PolygonOffsetFactor=-0.15
PolygonOffsetUnits=-3.0
LandShading=0
LandDetails=0
Sky=2
Forest=3
