Sable Waves 2.x

What's new since 1.x

Sails actually sail. Sails has a facing now. A sail edge-on to the wind luffs and does nothing; square-on it pulls hardest; and the push acts along the sail's own normal rather than just moving randomly.

Ships leave a real wake. Not particles — actual foam drawn on the moving water. A Kelvin V opening from the bow at the correct 19.5°, a bright crest at the stem, churn behind the transom, and transverse crests that lengthen as you speed up.

Weather, Storms & Tornadoes support. Corosus's wind field drives waves and sails just like PMWeather. You can choose which one you like more.

Whitecaps need a more wind. The wave whitecap needs more wind 

Much faster. More FPS for you

Versions

• 2.8.x — Wake polish: bow wave added and the V now starts at the bow.
• 2.7.x — Wake given its own geometry so nothing in the ocean sheet can erase it; wake starts at the stern rather than the ship's middle; no foam under the hull; in-game diagnostics in chat.
• 2.6.0 — Whitecaps gated on wind speed; shoreline foam keyed to distance from land; adaptive quality can no longer shrink the ocean out from under the surf.
• 2.5.x — The wake drawn on the water replaces the old particle one; particles kept only for spray.
• 2.4.0 — Performance pass.
• 2.1.0–2.3.0 — Directional sails, keel, apparent wind, and full Create windmill sail support via Create's own tag.
• 2.0.0 — Weather, Storms & Tornadoes integration.
