Console access: render_water_shoreline_wetness (API control)
|
| Waterline Accuracy |
The quality of underwater and waterline determination. Use high quality only if you need to submerge underwater (to see the waterline) and at medium and high Beaufort values. One of the following values:
Console access: render_water_waterline_accuracy (API control) |
| Render Underwater Shafts |
The value indicating if rendering of underwater shafts is enabled. Enabled by default.
Console access: render_water_shafts (API control) |
| Render Environment Probes |
The value indicating if rendering of environment probes on the water surface is enabled. Enabled by default.

|
| Render Voxel Probes |
The value indicating if voxel probes are enabled for water rendering. Enabled by default.
Console access: render_water_voxel_probes (API control) |
| Render Lights |
The value indicating if rendering of lights on the water surface is enabled. Notice Enabled by default.
The option doesn't affect the World Light source. Console access: render_water_lights (API control)
|
| Opacity Depth |
The value indicating if depth data for water is written to the opacity buffer. Enabled by default.
Console access: render_water_opacity_depth (API control) |
| Field Height Resolution |
The resolution of the texture into which all textures set for all FieldHeight objects are rendered. Notice One of the following values:
Increased resolution significantly affects performance.
Console access: render_field_height_resolution (API control) |
| Field Precision 32 bits |
The value indicating the precision of textures used for field objects. Either of the following:
Console access: render_field_precision (API control) |
| Field Shoreline Resolution |
The resolution of the texture into which all textures set for all FieldShoreline objects are rendered. Notice One of the following values:
Increased resolution significantly affects performance.
Console access: render_field_shoreline_resolution (API control) |
Geometry Settings#
Geometry Settings
| Preset |
The index of the Global Water geometry preset used at the moment. To customize the Global Water geometry preset options at run time you should activate the Custom preset: One of the following values:
Console access: render_water_geometry_preset (API control) |
|---|
Customizable Settings#
The following settings are available when the Custom preset is selected.
| Geometry Progression |
The progression of Global Water geometry tessellation. Range of values: [0.0f, 50.0f]. The default value is 1.5f. Console access: render_water_geometry_progression (API control) |
|---|---|
| Geometry Fade Lods |
The intensity of fading between levels of Global Water geometry tessellation. This value can be increased to remove sharp edges between areas with different geometry density. Range of values: [0.0f, 1.0f]. The default value is 0.5f. Console access: render_water_geometry_fade_lods (API control) |
| Geometry Subpixel Reduction |
The minimum ratio of a polygon size (in screen space) to the size of an area seen in the viewport. If the ratio calculated for the polygon is less than this value, such polygon will be removed. Range of values: [0.0f, 50.0f]. The default value is 6.0f. Console access: render_water_geometry_subpixel_reduction (API control) |
| Geometry Polygon Size |
The size of Global Water polygons. The value defines the maximum allowed density of Global Water geometry. If the polygon size is large, small waves will be lost. It is better to set this parameter to about 1/3 or 1/4 of the smallest wavelength. Range of values: [0.0f, 1000.0f]. The default value is 0.01f. Console access: render_water_geometry_polygon_size (API control) |
| Visibility Distance |
The maximum visibility distance for the Global Water. The water is visible, as long as the distance between the camera and the water object does not exceed this value. Range of values: [0.0f, inf]. The default value is 30000.0f. Console access: render_water_visible_distance (API control) |
Culling Settings#
Culling Settings
| Culling Aggressive |
The value indicating if frustum culling optimization is enabled for the Global Water. When enabled, the number of culled polygons increases thereby increasing performance. In case of any issues with polygons rendering, try disabling this option (however, note that performance may drop). Enabled by default.
Console access: render_water_culling_aggressive (API control) |
|---|---|
| Culling Frustum Padding |
The value, by which the borders of the current frustum are increased. Frustum culling is performed for the frustum of the increased size. By the maximum value of 1, the frustum borders will be increased by the size of the current frustum. Range of values: [0.0f, 1.0f]. The default value is 0.1f. Console access: render_water_culling_frustum_padding (API control) |
| Culling Oblique Frustum |
The multiplier for the size of viewing frustum used for culling polygons of Global Water object beyond the oblique frustum plane. The higher the value, the more patches will be culled. Range of values: [0.0f, 1.0f]. The default value is 0.9f. Console access: render_water_culling_oblique_frustum (API control) |
