my water textures don't work.


(the_jollly_roger) #1

Im a noob to designing levels for wolfenstien, im at the point where I want to make water, a swimming pool to be more exact, most of the textures I have don’t work and the ones that do, they don’t work properly. (they dont have the characteristics of water, they act like a solid brush) If some one could point me in the right direction that would be great!

much obliged, the jolly roger

For “ET”
textures>liquids_sd>siwa_water2
you can use that one until you learn more.
textures>common>no_draw_water
this adds the characteristics of water

so make a brush and make all sides “no_draw_water”, then on the top face, texture it siwa_water2.
This will give the brush the appearance of water along with splashes and swim-abilities.
