I have found it on avsim also here: http://library.avsim.net/search.php?Sea ... &Go=Search

The description reads:
Full throttle sims would like to present to you the most realistic water textures to date. Years of planning and work have come to this moment.if you have voz, the textures may not show up correctly. Xtra Water was made using default textures from fs9. If you have VOZ they may not look the same because voz changes textures xtra water does not have have. It may look better or worse. We havent tested it.


I am a little weary about installing this- perhaps someone else can try it first and tell us what they think...?

I used them in the Spitfire pics over Tauranga the effect to me was too "corduroy". I didn't like them so have gone back to the Waterzone texs (sorry don't have a link but I think its on Simviation).

Google waterzone fs2004

This page has it and looks like other goodies there too:

Sorry but I just tried another file on that page, you need to register by the loks of things.

Try:

You mentioned that the Terrain Detail: Land and Water slider goes back to halfway. It should be at halfway... are you saying that the water effects slider (bottom one) wont stay on High?

Does the slider go to half way like Mat's screenie-that is right if so.I saw that file too and left it alone because of VOZ (which is the best freeware addon ever)The amount of times I've had to reinstall my whole setup which takes days now because of trying to fix something that aint broke to start with.The advice about having your whole sim backed up on a seperate hard drive is the best advice I know of.
