In The Shadow Of The Swamp - Point Lookout Reborn - Water Plane Lod and Seams Fix

 The ITSOTS mod accidentally moves a DLC04WaterPlane01 in the X and Y axis. It’s next to the cave the mod adds to the location (aaxPungaCaveExt). The result is a visible darker square and seams in the sea.

The ID of the water plane is 0401237B

The ID at the top is from some object on the ground. I use it to know which cell I am in.


The ID at the top is from the red buoy. I use it to know which cell I am in.


I used Fo3Edit to copy the values from the left column to the right column (see the first picture). Remember to save the changes before quitting the program. Always back up your files.

Fo3Edit screen. This is how it looks after I copy the values.


The dark square at the center no longer exists. Ignore the lack of reflections in the distant water.


I was generating LOD for Point Lookout (Fo3LodGen), and everything seemed fine until I found a floating above the trees. It was a LOD mesh of the DLC04WaterPlane.

The ID at the top is from some object on the ground. I use it to know which cell I am in.


Incorrect value in the Z axis. The ID of the DLC04WaterPlane01 is 36026D8D.


I used Fo3Edit to change the value of the Z axis to -3228.

The correct value.


Point Lookout Reborn edits a DLC04WaterPlane01 below the Ferris wheel. The plane ID is 04012331.

The ID at the top is from some object on the ground. I use it to know which cell I am in.


The way to correct the issue is the same. I change the Z value in FO3Edit to -3228. 

The ID of the water plane is 04012331.

If you see a plane floating in the sky that disappears when you approach it, that may be the problem. That is all for today.
