Sorting out some searchlights for the new TOW install Ted and I are doing covering the Bltiz to the BC 1000 bomber raids in 1942. These are a test over the London area with a Ju88. It's still one with daytime camo; I should check if we have ones in what I assume were Blitz night camo.

Looks promising!

Yes there are Ju88's with night camo, I do have a nice one in my install 'AvH_GR_JU88A-4_4DHP' but I can't remember from where it come from.
 
You are right! I was thinking all black but it seems that the bomber variants just have black undersides. There are some for the CFS2 KM ju-88 in the library. The [FONT=Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,Calibri,Geneva,sans-serif]ju88_night_straffer in CFS3 has a night bomber skin.[/FONT]
 
I appreciate that Gecko's new water file has enough resolution that the River Thames water is a different color than what's in the the adjacent lakes.

I can also see that the interpolation banding in the open water areas where adjacent pixels change colors abruptly is much less noticeable. You've accomplished something wonderful to behold with this.
 
Took this yesterday and decided to do a little photoshopping (paint.dot.net actually) and liked how it turned out. Now I want to try reshade to see if I can get a similar look in game. Used Glow, radius 10, brightness -55, contrast 51. Then followed it up with another brightness and contrast edit of brightness -11, contrast 23. Any ideas?

Glad you like the new water Andy!
