I'm working on shaderless water for my OOP Wrapper for DGDK and I wanna know that you guys think of it. I know, it's not very realistic; I was just going for something simple, fast, and water-like. Any suggestions on what I could do to make it better would be greatly appreaciated. There's a little demo attached to my post. You might need the Ageia PhysX drivers because my wrapper automatically includes it.

Nice texture..

Suggestion:
Try using one plain object with multi texturing to get the same result, or somthing even better. You dont need 3 of them.

I did somethin smiliar sometime ago, try searching forums for "shaderless water".

There is always one more imbecile than you counted on.

Thanks! About the multi-texturing (using 'SetBlendMappingOn()', I presume), will that actually use any internal shaders (like 'Set Bump Mapping On()') or what not?? 'Cause I wanna make sure my water is totally shader-free.
