BUG: (This one was a bear to hunt down!)

It's a game bug, not my Mod.

User Have 2 choices in the UI for Water Interaction Water Interaction On(Foam+Reflection+Refract)
If you load the Extreme Quality Profile you get r_splashes=3.0 (Think of it as an indexed drop down box like the others)On(Foam+Reflection+Refract)
If you load the Very High Quality Profile you get r_splashes=2.0 On(Foam+Reflection)
If you load the High Quality Profile you get r_splashes=1.0 (On+Foam)
Any other lower profile gives you the default r_splashes=0.0 Which is not listed in the eq2_recent.ini

If you have ever changed this box you may have noticed the problem before. The Box is often (empty) as if nothing was actually selected.
If you Select the option you have. On(Foam+Reflection+Refract)
It only gives you r_splashes=1.0 (Sinces its the first choice in the list and there are no other choices)
(It 'SHOULD' give you r_splashes=3.0) if the label were correct.
This is why the ocean is always looking different if you have changed this value manually.
Try setting to Extreme Quality (this gives you r_splashes=3.0), Or High Quality(This gives you r_splashes=2.0), and take a look at the ocean. (Ahh Pretty!)
Now.. go to your Water Section and look at Water Interaction. (It's Blank Right?? This is beacuse the pre-defined profile gave you r_splashes=3.0 Which isn't listed.)
Select On(Foam+Reflection+Refract) and see what your ocean looks like now?
You have just manually turned off Reflcetions and Refract.
Because that choice gives you r_splashes=1.0 instead of r_splashes=3.0 as it should according to the label.

How this effects my MOD.

If you set your Water Interfaction to On(Foam+Reflection+Refract)
It will cause multiple entries in the Water Section to not update properly.

For now, you will have to manually adjust this in your .XML file.
Or eq2.recent.ini file before parsing it.

The 'easiest' alternative is when setting up your buttons.

Select a pre-defined profile similar to what you want, then click accept.
Then make your adjustments and click accept again.
Then parset the eq2_recent.ini file.

WaterInteraction: r_splahes.

Works like this.
r_splashes 0.0 = off
r_splashes 1.0 = On+Foam
r_splashes 2.0 = On+Foam+Reflections
r_splashes 3.0 = On+Foam+Reflection+Refract


I'll ask ger to have the parser kick r_splashes up to 3.0 if it detects an entry for 1.0.
That will fix the problem. Untill SOE fixes the issuew with this drop-down box.
