Half-Life 2: Custom Water Shaders

dude that looks crazy . fiddle with yoru settings a bit

I'd be interested in seeing a proper "rough seas" one though. That could look very good in a 3d skybox

what was the problem with the default hl2 water? it is still phenomenal great and simple!

hessi i think he just wanted to make some custom water.

looks even better then before squirls keep up the good work

That's nice, you are a making new HLSL scripts and all?

Good work, I like it alot. Keep it up.

there appears to be seams ?? That looks a lot better already

BAM! GODLIKE! Good job! keep it up!

The normalmap is still to strong. Calm it down and noise it a bit.

yeah i still like the default one better

when i first read custom water shader i was mad exited the hl2 water shader doesnt do anything phenomenal that other games cant do (actual most games do the exact same stuff a second scene render + fersnel + distortion + volumetric fog below all on an animated normal map or on some scrollign normal layers) BUT that animted normal map from hl2 IS JUST SOOOOOOO DAMN GOOD !!!!!!!!

it looks 10 kabillion times better than what any other game has to offer ... when ever i see somthign like this i want to try to up the bar another notch and make an even cooler animated normal map but i just have absolutly no idea how make one that tiles properly so i toughed that you might have found the answer for me unfortunalty this screenshot shows that you have the same problem:

MAD KUDOS keep up the great work

i think you have to "code" such textures. dont ask my how...

You need to write proper material shaders. Thats no coding at all.
