Looking at the videos of SS 08 on youtube i noticed there was no bow splashes. On the box cover of SS 08 the pilot vessel had a nice bow splash on it. Will This feature be in SS 08? KM

I think it would be an idea for an update patch.

I'm sure SS08 will have bow splashes. If they are describing evrything else included in the version, I am sure they will fix the bug and include the splashes.

Go look on shipspotting.com and look in the storm pics. Yo Will see some large wakes and alot of spray from the hull of the ship hitting the water.

Make that 9 . . .

This has been a topic of debate amongst a few of us for a while. AND I WANT MY SPLASHES!! HA HA HA! In rough seas. And in calm seas I must have my wake. At all times. :p

Master Captain · « **Reply #12 on:** May 26, 2007, 14:27:04 »

Yea, especially when i'm in rough seas, i want big bow splashes and spays. KM

Maik · « **Reply #13 on:** May 26, 2007, 16:00:11 »

And in storms I want to see it all splash onto my windows. That would be perfect!

I was just about to write that.

Oh yea, rough seas, big bow splashes, water splashing onto my windows. KM

Flyboy3771 · « **Reply #16 on:** May 26, 2007, 19:19:26 »

That would be very neat!!

AriesDW · « **Reply #17 on:** May 26, 2007, 20:59:10 »

but if we have water hitting the bridge viewports, would we not then need . . . . whipers?

Maik · « **Reply #18 on:** May 26, 2007, 21:23:55 »

You read my mind

won't be to hard to put in some whipers would it??

I think that the splashing water will be hard enough to do...

That is the hard part. The easy part is the windshield whipers. It is a simple animation execution when you press a key command.

Maik · « **Reply #20 on:** May 26, 2007, 21:59:02 »

That's what I mean. That making the splashes on the window from the waves realistic will be much harder to do..

Master Captain · « **Reply #21 on:** May 26, 2007, 22:15:36 »

I remember on the old forum there was a discussion about winshield wipers, but thats another topic. KM

AriesDW · « **Reply #22 on:** May 28, 2007, 00:10:40 »

Realistic bow wakes and splashes are yet another hurtle to cross. I highly dislike cheesy wakes . . .

Master Captain · « **Reply #23 on:** May 28, 2007, 01:36:13 »

Yea, who likes cheesy wakes. KM
