Isn't is possible to let the water cover the entire plane?


Well, no. It's not practical, as a very large heightfield == super
long rendering time, and if I stretch it to much there will be no
wawes. But I think that problem can be solved by turning the field
a bit.


Perhaps adding some ground fog will make the impression of • slightly
worse weather?


Could be, I haven't managed to get decent fog yet - another thing
to learn.
I'm in the smoke business right now... Atmosphere is also
something to investigate. Both of them multiplies the rendering
time by X (x >> 1) though, so it will take a while.


Nice picture, BTW.  I think I may "borrow" your water-like
POV-instructions later on!  :-)



Thanks, You're welcome - that's the idea of sharing. Preferably
You make better water, and tell me how to :-)
