A complete overhaul of the water experience in Garry's Mod. New sound system, dynamic particles, underwater effects, overhauled water materials, an editor entity, etc.
Features
- A "Water Editor" entity. See the video on how it's used. It can change both visual & gameplay mechanics of water behaviour.
- Improved standard Garry's Mod & Half-Life 2 water materials.
- Refraction-based particles for all base half-life 2 water particles.
- Dynamic underwater particles (bubbles, kicked up dust, damage effects, blood, etc).
- Dynamic water dripping on all objects leaving submersion.
- Underwater ambient sound.
- Water sound muffling & more realistic underwater first person sound experience.
- "Magnet" system for walking underwater. Ability to actually properly walk on terrain/props underwater and not start swimming off. Simply jump or run off a steep enough incline to return to swimming.
- server-toggleable underwater post-processing. (sv_ew_screeneffects 0/1).
- server-toggleable underwater footstep sounds (sv_ew_footsteps 0/1).
