well, you really want floating icebergs?

my 2c, those near coastline are standstill, so you use new tiles for that.

one huge ones need 3d model.

and flat ones use sea-level cloud system.

OBTW, anyone know yet, what lats the polar icecap extends to in winter???

As you see, it doesn't come near the coast of Norway.

DAMN DAMN DAMN... Well, It might just happen to extend to with a few umpteen miles of the norwegian coast, just for my sake!!!!

Damn Polar Icecaps!!!!

It seems Oceanic Icebergs are smoother, and cleaner, and typically a bluey/white colour... While Glacial Icebergs are more Jaged (i suppose from not being in the sea) and look much dirtier... grey/brown and white...
