furio Report post Posted July 13, 2008 As you can see in this screnshot in votd, the shadow on the tree thats on the water is still but as you can see the grass is moving just like in the water reflection. If possible do you think you could make the tree's shadow (in that fact any shadow that's casted onto a water surface) become like a moving watery object thingy. I know its hard to explain but it would look nicer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trollson Report post Posted July 14, 2008 The bushes are reflections, the trees are casting shadows; two different type of effects. Reflections are very sensitive to the surface-normal, and ripples will break up the pattern as seen in the illustration. Shadows are cast on to the water surface, and are not sensitive to surface-normal. The most you'd expect would be distortion at the edges in the presence of large waves.
