Underwater View Distance

Post » Sun Jun 27, 2010 8:26 pm

I think what I am looking for is an underwater fog mod, but I am not sure. My video sliders are maxed, but even if they were not, the slaughterfish underwater are simply too visible, which kind of breaks the underwater feel. If lower underwater fog distance settings would help with this, what mods change these values?

I have StreamSight turned off because I do not need the extra FPS boost outside. I only really kept that feature enabled for the distant fog, and I have found some other candidates for that modification. If I could have SL set the underwater fog without modifying anything else, that might work.


Edit: I found a mod that makes water clearer, so I am going to try to tweak that to make things murkier and see how that works out...

That is kind of strange, haha...


Edit: I think I just need the water to be cloudier or something. I do not get why the fishies are so...visible...

You need a mod like http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=8011 that edits the properties of the Water records, Opacity and Fog Distance being the crucial ones.
