Endless Ocean 2: Adventures of the Deep, known in North America as Endless Ocean: Blue World, is a scuba diving video game for Wii and the sequel to Endless Ocean, previously released for Wii in 2007. It was first revealed at a Nintendo conference held on October 2, 2008. The game was released as part of the Touch! Generations series of games in the United Kingdom and Europe.

Problems

Reflections

The reflection of anything on the water gets drawn with an offset of quite a significant amount . I suspect it's the same amount and side as in "Stretching and Transparent Textures".

Dolphin's reflection gets drawn too high , and too much to the left: (actual screenshot) http://i28.tinypic.com/2ldyuyt.png

Notice the amount s of displacement coincide with the border effect in issue 2. http://i32.tinypic.com/k6lio.png

Cut out the "under water" bit of the dolphin and moved it the amount the borders on the sides are off , looks like a match to me. http://i29.tinypic.com/29lgrqp.png

Stretching and Transparent Textures

On the left and bottom sides , when a transparent texture overlaps another the texture underneath gets stretched out to the edges , this does not happen when there is no transparent texture on top . It happens when looking at the surface from under the water , also when looking at the water from the surface.

After wave has receded , the textures underneath where it was look fine : http://i27.tinypic.com/2cylcnl.png

Hair

The hair on the main character looks strange , but when taking a closer look , I can see the polygons aren't actually drawn , that's why they look transparent. Either the wii draws surfaces not displayed on screen , or textures and colors both sides of surfaces.

In game with normal graphics looking at sunshine.. notice the top of the head of the main character is transparent. http://i30.tinypic.com/6jm0eq.png

Character select screen without textures , notice there are no polygons for the top of the head: http://i31.tinypic.com/1ekmdj.png

Again , without textures , on the boat , no polygons where the top of the head is. http://i30.tinypic.com/25s60eg.png
