This bug will be present in jungle, fort, and sometimes even city scenes.
This bug is present after that you update GoF with the 1.2.9 patch. I think that someone 'lighted' the .tga file way too much, and it looks rather nasty.

Update: The following will fix the sand and reef issue.

It's possible thats been around since GoF! 1.0. I replaced the sand texture for when your underwater with something more realistic akin to sand underwater in the Caribbean.

Easy fix:

Replace the texture with the original.

Hard fix:

Using the GM viewer and a hex editor, determine all instances of the texture appearing, get the original texture, give it a new name then hex edit the instances where the game requests the texture and replace it with the newly named texture.
 
I don't have access to my PC at the moment so I cant send you the file, though I'm sure someone else can help.

Well, I'm sure it looks great underwater but I didn't realize that texture was used so widely throughout the game outside of being a ground texture for being underwater.

When I do have access to my PC I might go via the hard route and fix all the instances of underwater sand texture being used on the top side.
 
I am having the same problem with the rock texture by Bermuda.

Just install the game again in a different location on your hard drive and get the original textures from there.
 
Did anyone ever get the original files for the sand and the rock texture?

And I have a quiz for you all. What is wrong with the picture below?

Never saw a Corvette with +2000 men and considered rate 1 too... weird *laughs*. Is that what you mean with the quiz?
 
Lol.

Is it hard to put the ships stuff in the re-int function?

Does no one else have the texture problems pointed out above?

Craiggo have you added ships and continued a savegame?

Because that is most likely the reason for this problem.

Yes, I have. So I started a new game. AGAIN!

So is the life of a modder, huh? I will never get anywhere in the game I swear.

About those textures that OP edited that are all screwed up, has anyone a clean un-modded install of the game of which we could restore the decent textures again?
 
Yep as a rule i never normally pass rank 15 before a new game is required. :modding

And yes i do have the stock game installed unmoddied which i use for fresh installs, ie. Installed COAS into default directory, made a folder on the desktop for GOF and then copied the intire COAS folder from the main directory and pasted it into the folder i created on the desktop and when ever i need to do a fresh install i do the same and have done since the serious work started in the combined mods.

So exactly what do you need and where can i find it (TGA's not been my field) so not sure where to find things.
