Problem with water, it is invisible.

[>>NoTarget<<]

Hi

I have tried many times now to make water in a room.
I have followed this.

Here is the result.

Here is a screen from my Hammer.

That is EXATLY the problem i have
under the water is fine, but the top surface NEVER works..
it works on de_rats and azzy, piranesi T spawn etc, so i know my pc can handle it...

Stick in a water_lod_control entity and see if that fixes it.

You have the nodraw texture on all faces except the top face, correct? With that and the water_lod entity (which can be placed anywhere btw) it should be fine.

Well, I say fine - I still don't know how to get it to reflect other props and such, unless there's something up with my detail settings - must investigate.

Does the sdk_water example level work?

 

[KoreBolteR]

no , but i dont see why it doesnt, as rats and everything else does

I had to run something extra than i allways normally did when compileing to get rid of this problem. Maybe it was Rad.... I dont remember... Vis...


Just messarround with them. Worked for me.

Same problem here, and none of the stuff suggested so far (including the interlopers guide & forums) has helped so far.

Boo-hoo :'(
