I seem to recall that water had a certain transparency to it, in addition to the reflection.  All I see lately are reflection, and it is completely opaque, no visibility underneath the water, even standing toe-deep I can't see even the top of my feet. Does not seem to matter what performance pre-set I put it on (I play on high-quality, 1024x768, sacrifice abit of resolution for higher quality textures....) I've tinkered with some of the other individual settings to no avail.  Any insight? System: P4-HT (3.4Ghz), Geforce 6600 256mb Vid-Ram, 1gb Memory, very recent fresh install of windows.

turn on complex shaders to ANY distance (ie +1)

Ohhh it's beautiful.  Worked perfectly, thank you so much <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> Abit of a performance hit but worth it for the true-water feel.  G'day <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />
