dynamic water detail disappears as i zoom

Post by crazy dave »

ok i start playing TA spring and dynamic water is running the quality looks perfect if the zoom is right up close to it, i mean proper close all the lovely reflective water and the water has a blue shade to like all natural water has and dynamic waves. 8)

then i zoom out the tinniest bit and the water goes completely clear and all the wave detail is lost, its like the first water setting and the water literally looks like a thin glass sheet and im like WTF :evil:

how do i fix this guys :(

PS my comp hardware is pretty damn good my pc has no other problems with spring just this, all the other water settings are fine.

There is no such thing as TA spring, it's just called Spring.

I notice this too.

All i know its related to the location of the map and not the height of it. The end of the wave is sudden as it goes up the picture, and in game if you moved towards it, it would correct itself like some sort of render distance.
