Floating Buoys [FIXED for v1.7+]

Description
Finally, working floating buoys! Thanks to the new floating shader, these are now buildings that move on the waves. Since they're not props anymore, these will stay visible for much longer when zooming out.

This pack contains two different buoys (green conical and red cylindrical) which can both be found under Beautification > Water Structures

Stats for green buoy:
Main model: 294 tris, 256x256 px texture
LOD: 138 tris, 128x128 px texture

Stats for red buoy:
Main model: 292 tris, 256x256 px texture
LOD: 112 tris, 128x128 px texture

Just what I was looking for. Great thank you

Just tried these out. They look really nice, but w/o lights or sound, and the fact you have to be very close to them with the camera makes them useless. Any chance of remaking these ?

No longer sailing at all.... sold the boat in favor of a RV instead as it was a much easier retirement traveling scenario. Sold the boat in... hmm... 1985 or 1986 I think, haven't been on the water since. Just as well, if I go swimming now I sink like a rock now even in salt water due to all the metal joints I now havepaired with my super skinny self (not a buoyant as the larger folks are), rofl

That's quite some time ago! No longer sailing at all or just not in international waters? Cardinal buoys sound interesting, might give them a go soon.

Fair enough Lee Towers, I had fgorgotten that as its been nearly 30 years since I was sailing the international waters, and even then the IALA system was in place, but not completely placed in the waters as yet at the time. Might you consider including the "Cardinal" buoys as well (black / yellow (used to be black/white in my day) which are shared across both region A and B? Thanks for your response and continued work.

There are actually two regions (A and B) which use opposite colours. Region B is the Americas, the Phillepines, Japan and South Korea, and there indeed green buoys are cylindrical and red buoys conical. Region A is the rest of the world and uses the system I based these assets on.

Interesting choice, you have the shapes and colors reversed though.... the international buoy system has the red "nuns" as conical shaped, and the black (now green) "cans" are cylindrical in shape. Nice mode though with that correction aside.
