Elba water

File Description:
To improve the scenery of Elba (small Italian island between the Italian coast of Tuscany and the island Corsica), I changed the waterclass around the island, more specific I added the beautiful lightblue colours that are often seen by shallow waters in tropical seas and the Mediterranean. They didn't show up by default for Elba. See also my airport scenery for Elba (marina di campo.zip)

Enhanced Water Textures

File Description:
After trying loads of water packages, all excellent in there own right, taking the best bits from various sources and also re-editing the water textures, we came up with a mix we think is a great balance of texture and colour resulting in what we think is a true and more realistic seascape. Hope you agree and enjoy.

Real Night Water

File Description:
In the real world, at night, water appears all black. You can't see it from the air unless there is a reflection from the moon. To get this effect in fs2004, all water display effects have to be set to minimums, but then you lose all reflections. Not any more! Now with Real Night Water, you no longer have to mess with your diplay settings. The water appears black and there is even waves and moon reflections, just like in the real world. No more silver glaze over the water at night. It will work with default textures but was designed utilizing Extra Water by FullThrottleSims/Hector Davila (extrawater.zip) which is highly recommended and freeware available on this site.

Calm Water Textures

File Description:
FS2004 Water Environment Textures II The Golden Eagles Squadron presents alternative sun and moon water reflection textures with lower waves and revised graphics. They add a dynamic quality to the fs2004 water as would be seen on a calm surface. Caution! These textures are only for DX8.1 compliant cards and will not work unless you can move the "Water Effects" to High in your display options and it stay there!

'Classic' Water Reflection

File Description:
For those of you that miss the FS2002 water reflections, these are optimized sun and moon reflection textures for FS2004. The new files are a quarter the size of the original files, with no visual degradation (that I could see) and improved performance.
These should work with older video cards (non-DX9) as well and look great with either "High" or "Low" Water Effects enabled. They look particularly good when combined with the OceanFX 2 package (with OCEANSFX.ZIP and OCEANSTX.ZIP).

Replacement Dynamic Water Texture Set Version 12

File Description:
Replacement dynamic water texture set for FS2004 (VERSION 12). The default reflections and water colors leave a lot to be desired in FS2004. As an example; The default "bright green" overcast texture is highly unrealistic in overcast conditions. Most of the FS9 default colours are generally too electric and cartoon like. These replacement textures will change these water environment textures dramatically to a much more convincing and realistic colour and, with improved lighting and reflections in respect to the sun. Version 12 moon light textures are new and there is an improved mid-sun with more convincing reflections. Now when you fly by moonlight you can actually see the moon kissed water and even see some wave action. It actually feels like you are there! There are 3 moon light textures in this download. These replacement textures will generally give a much more realistic tone and color to the water effects in FS2004. The change is quite dramatic and transforms the flight sim experience to a much greater level of realism. It is important to stress the default FS9 textures are fully compatible with these new textures and they can be used in any combinations and can be mixed and matched with the new textures. As a further added bonus a voice control file has been included for "Shoot" which will control FS2004 by voice. It is brilliant and it's free.

Ocean Waves and Reflections, DXT3 Version

File Description:
This is the DXT3 version of my ocean wave/reflection files. It might give you better performance (depending on your system) by trading in visual quality. Plus, the download is smaller ;)

Replacement Overcast Water Texture

File Description:
The default milky "white/green" texture is highly unrealistic in very grey overcast conditions such as we often find here in Europe. The replacement texture will change this to a more convincing "blue/grey" cast. Version 2 has a darker blue/grey than my version 1 and presents a more realistic colour and in particular it's much improved in "dark overcast" conditions. Version 2 also offers better transitions from "overcast" conditions to "clear" conditions. It should be understood the default "milky green - overcast water texture" colour is dependant on the display settings. The replacement texture supplied will only work on DX9 compliant video cards. You must be able to move the "Water Effects" slider all the way to the right! If not then don't install them as you won't be able to see them!
