water textures

[POWDERKEG]

why is it that some water textures will look like crap and cause leaks, while others look great?

Sometimes I get good textures and sometimes I dont, even after I build the cubemaps and everything

the difference between expensive and cheap water?

 

[Dead-Inside]

Expensive, good looking water, takes a shitload of resources, while the cheap, and ugly, does not.
