The patch is fantastic! But wheres the water you posted in that one thread? I remember it was a very nice pacific blue and it actually moved, not just an illusion.

you have to go into video setup and turn it on.

Must turn water effect on to see it. If the water looks black that means it's turned off.

P.S. Strat & I posted at same time, did not mean to be repetitive.

Yea, that's all I get also. Plus it drops my framerate to 9.

IMHO the water looks terrible. I know that it is a step up, but it dosen't look like water.
I've lived in Florida most of my life, and have flown in all types of conditions, and I've never seen water in real life water that even resembles what is modeled.
I turned the new effect off, besides a significant frame rate hit, it just dosen't look good.
