this is a cool water effect I made for a game.

A simple effect really, all you have to do is make a plain,
position it close to the camera, texture it,
and scroll the texture every loop.

Exe in download!


The media is:
"water.bmp"--a water texture
"under.bmp"--a little message
I will post again with attached media.

Pretty nice, I like the colors. This could be useful if I ever create a game in which the player gets submerged in water and I need something like that when the player moves. I'd have to modify some of the physics, but it could definitely work.

Maybe don't make the water go so fast though, it could go a bit slower. My FPS on this was a consistent 60 FPS.

My FPS peaked at 400
I uncapped the 60 fps lock by loading an mp3.

a new version, this time actually using the scroll texture command.


Now is better than never.

I think he means he did it, but judging from the fact that theres no mp3, he means you'll have to load your own.

dark dragon, just a small bump?

loading an mp3 turns off vsync or something like that...
see this
the contents of the mp3 does not matter, you can use anything.
I attached an empty mp3 file, if you need one.
