RE: Water don´t appear
Maybe you put ponts in wrong order.

Documentation says:

In order to create a Lake you must create a polygon, by creating new points in clockwise order (looking from above).
In order to create a hole in a Lake, you must select a Lake, create one standalone point (using Ctrl+Insert) inside the Lake, then create points (using Insert) but in counter-clockwise order (also looking from above).

You don't have Water directory with water images in your game data folder. I think that you don't use World Editor form SDK directory, but you copy it to your game directory. or, if you use World Editor from SDK check path to your data directory.

Hi,

i have the same problem.
tried the clocwise order. Checked the water directory with (0.gfx / 0.n.gfx / 1.water / reflection.gfx) Currently using the sdk structure.

Any ideas?

thanks,
Oliver

Hi,

i tried them and i loaded the default and untouched water.world.
but nothing appears.

I use the latest NVidia Drivers on a i7 965 with SLI 2*GTX280.

   

I tested also the water with removed diffuse, normal and fake reflection. The material was saved by me and then later applied to the river.

Hello,

Could you try this:
extract latest EsenthelEngineSDK archive to a separate place in your hard driver.
Launch the World Editor and select the Data Path to the folder of your new EsenthelEngineSDK location followed by "\Data\" just where the message in World Editor points you to.
After World Editor starts please load "Water.world" without making any changes.

Hello,

If you want to set a different Data Path, please remove the Path.txt file, and restart World Editor, there please select your custom Game Data Folder.
And please make sure you have there the required water files.
