Ah thank you! I can't believe my error!

[Redvan]

lol, me neither, but then, i've never made water before, so I can't talk

Personally, I thought that would have been cool to see.. Kind of a mix of Religion and Final Fantasy X

[Redvan]

lol yeah

I think it is still solid, I used caulk_nonsolid.

[editormg]

caulk the whole brush, then texture the bottom and top faces with bespin/water2 or some such water textures

[Redvan]

normal caulk or non solid?

[editormg]

I think I used non-solid

I bow down to Shadriss's editing 1337-ness

 

I stand corrected.

 

This post was never here. It never happened. You never read this correction, nor did you read what was there before it.

 

jh

The previous post is incorrect.

 

The water brush is a caulk_nonsolid brush, with the water texture/shader applied to the top and bottom faces. The trick here, though, is this - not ALL of the base water textures actually WORK correctly.

 

For example, there are two water textures in the Bespin set (Water1 and Water2... imagine that...) Water1 does NOT work correctly, but Water2 does.

 

It'll take a little experimentation, but you'll figure out which ones work and which dont. But, whatever you do, ,DO NOT TEXTUE ALL FACES with the shader - especailly if you have multiple water brushes touching each other, ,since you couldnt see into the neighboring water brush if you did.
