....and according to the forum where the link is posted, they are planning yet another service pack addressing other issues...good customer service! I applaud developers that stand behind the product. Many do not. Thanks, Tim and REX team!
 
Does this SP address the issue of the following when you have clouds in lieu of a clear sky?

– New feature never before seen in FS2004. Sky coloring now reflects on all water surfaces during dawn and dusk hours.

I think the line that says '- Fixed water environment reflections' is the feature you refer to...but I'm not 100% sure...I guess 'environment' is open to speculation...
 
Much better envmap than previously. never liked the old one, used B'Bob's instead. new one is very nice. :applause:

You will have to re-configure all and save, ditto the Options.

DOH!

The limitation (within FS2004) was noted in Zinertek's Ultimate Water Advanced and not REX. Zinertek notes that it is a limitation of the FS2004 graphic's engine itself and not their software.

So I'm still wondering whether REX has found away around this?

Sorry for the confusion.

Regards,

Tommy
