It's so easy to describe how the sim deviates from reality, but this is vastly better than anything else in the total flight sim world, First, did you check when I wrote this post? I am long time settled with this little drawback now. Then, as others pointed out, P3Dv5.x waves on ultra DO offer what I was missing, so dont try to tell that no other flightsim gets this right...

August 11, 20214 yr Yeah the water effects are basic at best, sure they look ok at height and under certain conditions, nothing more positive can be said about them other than that IMO. yes they confirmed in the last or recent Q&A that they are looking at the effects - I say take your time Asobo and get it right - 70% of the Earth is covered by water so on that basis alone it demands complete attention from a team there. They say they are looking at tides - wow that would be incredible and another step again. in the mean time we need real particles effects, land on water your plane gets wet right - so simulate it👍 Edited August 11, 20214 yr by hanhamreds New PC Ryzen 9850X3D - 32gb ddr5 6000Mhz - MSI MAG B850 Tomahawk wifi - Gigabyte wind force gaming OC 5090 - 2TB Sabrent NVMe.

August 11, 20214 yr I showed my wife the wave effects that are produced when the wind speed is cranked up. She said "Wow! That looks great!". Well, I said to her, it's OK, but is just a visual effect. "What?" she said. I explained that there is no physics there, it's just an illusion. "But isn't the simulator itself just an illusion?", she asked. "Clearly, I said, you do not understand flight simming -- the problem is that float planes landing on these waves do not exhibit any effects such as bouncing around, as they would in real life." She answered "But would any real-life pilot ever land on waves that big?" "Of course not", I said. "Well", she said, "then what's the problem? Anyway, last week you were complaining that the float planes had no wakes. Now they have them and you are still unhappy. Are you never satisfied?" "Now", I said, "you are beginning to understand".
