Since installing the 1.08.4 patch, has anyone noticed their ocean displacement occasionally stops working? I've had that happen twice now, both times in Skelige -- but this time I saved as soon as it started. I'm in a boat, in the middle of a storm, and (except for the normal maps) the water is completely flat plane (you can even see that in the savegame's thumbnail.)
After saving, I had additional weird things happen at this location... once I'd raided the smuggler's cache that I'm at and resurfaced, my boat (which wasn't actually damaged enough to sink) was sitting just below the waterline, and the water had displaced out of the sunken boat like Moses had parted the red sea inside it... :) (I also saw this effect around an abandoned longship last night, the first time the ocean "went flat.")
Ah, shoot... The save is 2.2MB and the uploader only allows 2MB... :\ I'll see if I can put it somewhere else and then link to it...
