An added curiosity, how will it interact with the current (no pun intended) underwater tiles? Some of these tiles (hope I am using the correct terrain term) have provided some very exotic illusions of changes in water color, coral reefs, beaches and shorelines.
Regardless of whether or not some of the current effects from maps like Grinder, would disappear, this is a remarkable improvement. I guess, my hopes are that the water engine or injun
(dumbfounded about how this is all achieved) is displayed as a reflective opaque surface.
In the video, which I am about to watch again (this time with my motion sickness pill
) I am going to pay more attention to the zoom in and out effects. Also, the closeups, at first viewing, appeared to be reflective of clouds (was I mistaken?).
{edit}
After another look, the sky, sun and horizon all look to be very realistically reflective (in and out of zoom). So, if I am right, the reflections would be an opaque masque that produces the wonderfully desirable 3D motion presented in the video, yet preserving the underwater tiles. (Very pleasing to me = Chesapeake Bay area resident).
