The Water appear very nice like in your pictures. But I asked about the animate ocean shore waves, any news ?

yes i have created waves and foam entities im in the middle of prefecting it at the moment as slow on creating models for the effects, its all a wip atm but all coming to gether. perfection is taken time but hey im slow at doing this as the coding is all new to me lol.
iam working on the shimmer of water reflection also, so when i can get al what im working on as a happy median to work for all , then yes it will be all available here for you all, i would rather have something working properly than a halve shod media and get bad vibes on so to speak, in other words i like it to work for all before i would like all to have it and work ok. if that makes sense

There are some awesome ones on the store....
http://en.tgcstore.net/?md=view-pack&pid=10368

Cool that "Waves Pack" from the Store. I waiting the new FPSCR program to see if work.

Until the new FPSCR not appear, I don't pledge to gold and I don't buy anything too.

I'm without any job and for this reason I must careful invest my money in one software who give me more options to I can make a decent FPS game.

Anyway all I can say is the media from the store is very nice and worth buying,

But my media works in a differant way basically it will work with the fpscr engines water enviament So yo get water ripples and wash.

I'm minicking the shader from farcryengine so hence is taking time I'm working away ATM but when get back hopfully should get all sorted. And thus share my media. For free.

And also by my technical means I can produce rain and snow and other weather effects.

Finally had time to make a working fountain,

Here is a little demo

Also i can create other water effect and smoke and steam & dust extra so i will make some move vids of all in action.

None water items will be in a new post of there own as this post is about water



Happy New year to you all

Beautiful work!

How did I miss all this

This is fantastic work - well done spudnick.

Thanks for all the info in your earlier posts too.

Hint

if you change the colour of the water to lets say orange/red then it looks good for flowing lava

Note all the water will change colour tho.



And also if you change the normal map of waves2 to a flat and the water colour to a white greyish and use a grey texture for the ground under the water and slow the water speed to zero and add fog to your scene it looks really good for snow scenes



for my scene i edited the

water basic.fx file



// tweaks

//-----------------

float2 WaterScale = { 80.0f , 80.0f};

float WaterBump = 1.1f; the lower the number the less ripple and you get a more shiny surface

float FresnelBias = 0.01f;

float FresnelScale = 0.1f;//0.1f;

float2 Speed1 = { -0.00, 0.00 };

float2 Speed2 = { 0.000, -0.000 };

float2 Speed3 = { -0.000, 0.000 };

float4 WaterTint = { 1.0f, 1.0f, 0.8f, 1.0f };





i have added a ice nomal map in post for those who has not got one.

Thank you, still have not gotten any emails from you.

here is a nice lake affect. all contents are in the zip file with a read me file inside for install for the novice lol

Just to say for all new users that these effect's also work in Game guru just thought to mention

Thanks, these are great.

Hi all
its been a while since I have been tweeking with this water basic .fx
So I'm back on to it as I think I can do more on the vertex side of things giving more dispacement .
As I have changed some code and have improved on choppy waves.
But getting a routine glitch.
If I can't iron it out then will post fx file and see if some one else can help.
I shall put up a vid soon so you all can see the latest improvements.

excellent, thank you.

update. just to say due to working away non stop around the country, even tho i took my laptop with me and hdd crashed so bad times.
and so this is the first time i have free time to work on this so today on my home pc and i'am having a try to make it work.

well guys and lasses.

here we are again back on with shader tweaking. well changing code, well i have replaced the clamp string on the U; V; W; and now use the wrap string and other bits here is code change
Texture = <WaterRefractTX>;
ADDRESSU = wrap;
ADDRESSV = wrap;
ADDRESSW = wrap;
};
texture WaterReflectTX <string Name=""; >;
sampler2D WaterReflect=sampler_state
{
Texture = <WaterReflectTX>;
ADDRESSU = border;
ADDRESSV = border;
ADDRESSW = border;
};
texture WaterMaskTX <string Name=""; >;
sampler2D WaterMask=sampler_state
{
Texture = <WaterMaskTX>;
MagFilter = linear;
MinFilter = linear;
MipFilter = Linear;
ADDRESSU = wrap;
ADDRESSV = wrap;
ADDRESSW = wrap;
};
and the effect is somewhat better for large oceans.
here is a picture with better shore line wash, but its not aggressive at the moment as need to iron out lighting cordinates, on the pixel side of the shader.
Their is no water density in the first picture as one can see the sea bed on shallow part , just thought to say as using a high transparent setting atm LOL

Edit.
update picture with foam and white water reflections on surface.
