Favorite Wake effects?

(1/4) > >>

Intrepid:
Hello to all fellow Simmers out there;
with all these New awesome effects (Hud and the new Carrier) I was wondering, 
Has anybody came up with a decent replacement for the wake effect in the sim
The default one is simply lacking ,to say the least
I have seen some out there ,I would like to know if there are any favorites before
I down load a whole bunch and waste a lot of time sorting out the best
Thanks for the input
Randy

Sorry about the lack of response, as I too would like a better wake.  I use the wake with the add-on carriers, but it still does that cut-off stuff.

Was hoping with all the modding skillz that people have shown, something would come up, but so far, nada.

Guess we are just stuck with what we got?!  Good question tho...

Intrepid:
Thanks for the reply Sludge
For a bit there I thought My question was too far out there
I just thought that getting a more realistic wake would increase the immersion even more  ::)
like I commented earlier ,the people who love this hobby will out-do the original designers by a mile. The latest additions prove that. Thanks again for all who have contributed to this site

Voodoo:
I think, Randy, that your quest for a better wake is definitely on then, especially if we've got a working fix for the cut-off problem.

I been looking at some photos of carrier wakes. So far the pics I've seen don't seem to show as much spread out laterally as the default wake has, and I'll wager that there are some better textures around too.

Do you think there are some good ones out there to be had, sir?

SpazSinbad:
Sea / Wind / Light conditions combined with Ship Speed can vary the wake dramatically. Here is an olde pic from USS Midway days in 1971. From the look of it the wind is there but not much ship speed to create much of a wake, sea state is relatively calm. Notice the displacement with approaching Recon Crusader being on angle deck centreline. Probably the MIDWAY angle was more than most (it had a lot of deck overhang) but I cannot remember what it was for the moment.
