Wow. These look great! They are starting to look like actual water. Almost too pretty for their surroundings in Quake ;-)

[bluntz]

Wow
I love that water Web!

[TR2N]

Yeah, this water look pretty!

[NightFright]

If it doesn't use the dp_water shader, it will even save FPS.

[Spiney]

Wow, nice work

Is it difficult to do a z-buffer uplook in the pretty water fragment shader and use that for changing the diffuse color of the water? It certainly looks nice, but without fog it's always going to look too transparent imo.

Also, having some foam or greasyness texture would make it more swampy looking.

[NightFright]

Yeah, original Quake water was pretty brown and dirty (OK, that was mostly because it wasn't transparent back then, anyway). Maybe it shouldn't look like water you actually would like to drink. Same goes for slime surfaces, btw.

What do you actually need to get the ripple'd surface look in this pack?
I have Vis'd maps (pak2), what else?

@xolve
you need to add 'r_water 1' to your autoexec.cfg.
if you didnt add it, add that to your autoexec and the water effect should work

[xolve]

Thanks splitterface, I missed that part of the readme. I agree with some earlier posters that the reflectivity is a bit much. It there was more convolution happening it'd be alright, but at the moment it looks like there's a door underwater when there's a door above it, which can get confusing.
Otherwise - fantastic

[talisa]

welcome xolve, glad i could help

know its easy to overlook such things, lol

[Ghostbreed]

Also, if you didn't add the r_water code into your autoexec, typing it in the console will add the code to DP's config as well

I´ve tried a different shader:
