Water Color

[prowler.wolf 0]

Has anyone changed the water color for their island in A2?

If so would you be so kind as to explain how exactly. :)

This was done for Arma1, I'm sure it works the same way for Arma2. Open up the config file and look for the water material definitions.

tweak class Water in class CfgMaterials

For details have a close look at PROPER world.

Thank you, this is exactly what I am looking for :)

Sorry to dig this up but I am having a weird issue with this, the water appears exactly the way I intended in single player but when the map is being played online the water color goes back to the default green.
