Ocean Water Light Blue - Pirates of the Caribbean Online Fansite & Forums

I saw on some POTCO videos that the Ocean water was light blue instead of a dark blueish. Can anyone tell me how they got this?

High Graphics. 'Nuff said.

I have my graphics on high already.

When you play, is it a certain time of the day? I've noticed that the sea is light blue during morning/dawn, more of a Lions/Panthers blue during mid-day (( In-game.)), and is dark blue at night. Otherwise, I wouldn't know, it's usually light blue unless it's night for me....

I had this too! I got the light blue sea by changing the graphics API to OpenGL. But the game may lag more by using this type of sea!

In Graphics options, there should be an option named:

A) Shader Level 4

Turn that on, restart Pirates Online app, and see if the Ocean water changed.

I never used OpenGL ever since the massive lag I used to get with it. Always sticked with DX.

But yeah, I guess there's two ways to make it look more detailed like the video:

A) Open GL
B) Shader Level 4
