Description
Turns water more transparent overall.

C2M1 pool of water is still greenish, but much clearer.
C3 swamp still looks like ♥♥♥♥, but has very mildly improved transparency.
C4 water is generally bluer and clearer.
C5 water is slightly blue and clearer.

Redid all of the preview screenshots; done using vanilla skyboxes + no color corrections.
Waters are prone to looking different depending on the skybox.


Screenshots are once again outdated.

Skybox reflection only version has been pushed as the main addon. If you prefer the buggy ass entity reflection one, refer to the Google Drive.[drive.google.com]

the puddles are models so it wouldn't conflict with this if that's what you mean. I honestly think they look fine as they are in the vanilla. the supposed refractive puddle overshoots the parameters so much that it looks like a puddle of mercury

alr, thanks for the info, I'll try telling Jimmy about it so he can fix it.

It's actually 8 units, but you get the point.

Hey, thanks for reporting the issue, but the problem is that the base game "liquid\ruralwater_river" is 100% opaque. meaning you cannot see through it. When this mod makes the water transparent you can see the ground under the water, not visible during a gameplay without this mod.

The ground uses a material called "lostcoast\nature\sandfloor007d" which is not available in the base game, and Jimmy did not include it in his campaign either, so it shows up as missing texture.

It is very confusing because the ground is placed like 2 units under the water surface, so it does look like the water is fucked.

TL;DR It ain't my fault, brutha.

this mod sorta broke Salvation Falls and made the water in chapter 3's caverns a massive missing texture

I stole your mod and used it as a base for recoloring, saying just in case
