Truk Scenery

The problem with Jean Bomber's wonderful Truk is that it uses the original green gloom textures for the pacific which are too green for realism. When I used Pacific Blues and worked on developing a new set of accurate Blue Pacific textures i had to adjust Jean's custom water class textures and that turned out to be very hard to do well, as the tones are very subtle. The lagoon colours of the pacific atolls have to be seen to be believed, they are amazingly intensely blue and so i shelved my project and will probably just keep the originals as it is to much work to try to get the blue right thorughout the range of shallow and deep water textures. Dog's Truk is very nice, the only thing i changed was the position of the anchored ships as it was too regular like cars in a parking lot to be accurate. Otherwise it is a great addition and really gives the sense of Truk being the Japanese Gibraltar of the Pacific as it was for the early war years until the USN started using it as a prime target for the airedales.
