== Summary ==

I created this water for Seeking Lady Leicester because up until then, The Darkmod didn’t water that look like it should at night. So what have is as close as I could to faking moving water reflections that reacted to nearby light sources.

== Coloured, Murky, Reflective Canal Water ==

In a nutshell all the water is comprised of is a standard guis\underwater\underwater_blue_thinmurk.gui for underwater and a custom shader for the surface. I choose the custom shader, because every other method of using patches on the surface of the water never got close enough to the result I was after.

== Custom water texture ==

What we have is 3 stages -

* Bumpmap - this provides sudo micro-waves to the surface of the water.
* Specularmap - this provides the reflections on the waves from nearby sources of light.
* Deform/heathaze - this copied from the stock water texture(water_coloured) to provide the darkness to the surface of the water at night time.
