Making more "reallistic" water [ Solved ]

hi! i'm sorry if that question has already been answered, i really couldn't find that answer :/

i've been trying to make construct simulate a better looking water,something like the one in this game,i want that kind of movement http://armorgames.com/play/7291/double-panda

if anyone has a good idea on how to do that, please reply :]

thanks a lot!

What part, the wave or the bubbles?

For the wave I'd suggest one sprite with 2 or 3 frames.

For the bubbles just use the particles object with gravity set to up, and x randomization to the width of the water.

Here's an image you can use.

I don't think the water is pre-made, actually. The splashes from jumping in and out make this obvious.

Oh well the only water I saw was under a bridge.

Use the effects such as warp et cetera. I think there is a need for ripple effect, too.

I tried to, but the result was far from good. If anyone knows a better algorithm, please post. I'd love to do a ripple effect.

I found this link: http://freespace.virgin.net/hugo.elias/graphics/x_water.htm

It describes how to do a 2d ripple effect.

Taking that and reducing it to 1d resulted in this:

That is just plain brilliant, and looks quite understandable, even for my small brain capabilities.

Not sure I understand it, but yes it is brilliant.
