Waterfall?

by Ed Johnson · in Artist Corner · 04/01/2005 (6:46 pm) · 7 replies

Anyone ever tried to map a waterfall? Large cliff, 100ft drop, particle spray at the bottom would be easy, but making the water at the top and falling (cant use waterblock) I cant figure out.

Iirc the only way you can do it at the moment is by using particles. (which can still look good)

I think it would be a huge task to try and add a real looking waterfalls to TGE/TSE (if possible at all)
But i'm not a programmer so don't take my word for it :\

There's instructions for scripting a waterfall in the 3DGPAIO book. *methinks*
