Hi Igo....not at all sure what happened to your water....the Forth is a tidal water so maybe it was low tide eh ...any way I had a quick trip up there and found the tide was IN when I got there....

 
 
  I have the 9.1 Patch installed plus the Global Terrain Mesh  and  Waterzone water effects.....maybe that makes a difference ... see you..commoner  ;)

[igorski]

9.1 ... installed
check tides... done

[igorski]

Im afraid the mesh didnt sort  the problem, but a swift re-install of FS has. The water textures dont seem to be able to come to their best on my system tho.

 Igo........Glad to see you got water however you did it..........needs the slider right up for the best water effects to show but if your system can't do that ..well ...at least you have some waves lapping the shore line there I see.....guess we'd all like a few "teraflops" more speed to get a perfect result in all departments eh?

[igorski]

hmm, definitely, mine wont let me put the water slider to full   ah well, i'll live.

Another thing i've noticed, is that if you fly up past Inverness in FS9 then you'll find a 'Wall of water' in the firth. No terrain mesh's seem to affect this, is it possible to remove, or smooth out with some software?
