I wonder if CoD will model Swells as well as seas? It will be important when we're ditching.

Thanks for the System Specs, I should be abler to run the sim at the moment so all upgrades are off for me until I get a chance to play with the sim!

Cheers!

Nothing like that - those effects are direct compute and DX11 only...

Realistic water would be a long term goal and more at home with a Naval simultaion than a flight sim. I doubt any one of us has a super computer that would be capible of doing a realistic surface model of the channel.

That video was just eye candy! It was of a very limited area and I doubt it took into account the physics of the wind interacting with the water surface. In short although nice looking I doubt we'd get any useful info from that technique. Being able to guage the wid speed and direction from the wind chop would be fantastic , though beyond the scope of any consumer sim in the near future.

Cheers!

Nonsense. You can achieve the same with shaders and enough poly's. Its just a less efficient way to achieve the effect.
