EB Performance

[Tellos Athenaios]

I was under the impression it used some shader effects.

From the creator of the EB sea texture:

He's deadright . I made the new sea textures myself and the size did not change what so ever because that is not possible. I only added more detail , contrast and color to the tga's of the campaign map. The files did not change in size. They just look far better overall .
What did change with 1.0 is the adding of more scriptlines to the script .

Anyways as for shaders: well, if I understand shaders correctly then there is no shader involved apart from the built-in one used to project the shadows of the clouds onto the water surface. Oh and before you ask: that effect is present with the Vanilla seas as well; AFAIK it is the *exact same* effect.
