LiteWater

LiteWater is a simple infinite water template for Flax Engine users.

-IMPORTANT! There is a bug in version 1.6 of the engine that prevents this project from working correctly.
-So you should use the "Master Branch" (Dailybuild) version of the engine.

Here is a quick preview:

You can also take a closer look by watching the video below.

If you want to take a more closer look, you can download the demo executable from HERE

What does it offer?

• Good looking infinite and fully customizable sea with VTF.

You can customize it as you wish. There are also 8 different instances ready.

Some important info:

• Does not include FFT. It is heightmap based.
• Projected Vertex method is not used, it is model/tesellation based.

How To Integrate?

• Copy the "LiteWaterContent" folder into your project's "content" folder
• Copy "CustomDepth.cs", "CustomRefraction.cs" and "Water.cs" files, to your project's source/game folder.
• Add Water model to your scene, then attach the "Water" script to the model.
• Attach the "WaterShader" to the model.
• Be sure water model not casting any shadow.

• Set the water layer as "Bullets" or another layer which you prefer.

• Add a camera then attach the "Custom Depth" script to it. And under the "Render Layer Mask" uncheck the "Bullets" layer.

• Add a camera then attach the "Custom refraction" script to it. And under the "Render Layer Mask" uncheck the "Bullets" layer.
• Select one of the instances (lets say: "WaterSet4") from "Instances" folder and attach it to the water. DONE!
