water prob

[Tyguy]

I ran into a problem with my water. Its not appearing in the game..This is the first time its done this. I displace the ground and add the water, first nodraw then a water texture, but when i run it, its not visible, I can shoot it though...I know this is common I just dont know how to fix it...thanks

try diffrent water textures and be sure u got a cubemap entity over the water , cubemaps help render the water . while ur on it add a water_lod_controller entity or what its called : P
