    Vue.

    I created the splash and spray with SDS, more a bubbling fountain than a spray.

      I took your model with water and ran it through Render nXt.

      Changes:

      • turned on the ground plane for shadows (and changed it from green to grey)
      • used default High Dynamic Studio lighting
      • Set "rubble" procedural effect on the water. Scale set to 16 for enhanced ripples. (a bird bath usually has smaller waves than an ocean)
      • Set 50% reflection on the water for enhanced highlighting from the sky.
      • Added 20% reflection to the concrete so it could have some highlighting from the sky.

      I let it "cook" for about 15 minutes while I took a shower.
      (The shadows get softer and softer the longer you let it cook)

      Here is the result:

          Am I understanding this right : With nXt you can actually shower in the fountain while it is rendering?? πŸ˜„

                1, so do you have a sample available for download anywhere and 2, do you have a tree pack available?

                      Is it a component composed of several clipmaps spread around with component spray? Or a full 3D component? Is that ivy from the ivy generator? I know, too many questions... πŸ’š Hey, that grass and ivy would make a nice tutorial. πŸ˜›

                            The tank is from 3dWH, the ground texture is from GC Textures, the sky is from one of the Twilight skies packages and the plants are from Pete's (solo) collection.
                            How you like your fountain now!!!

                              You broke my fountain!!

                              Would be cool to see a SP explosion, where the fountain busts into hundred of flying bits.

                                      Nice Rich! Thanks for sharing the fountain spray you found. Ivy looks nice on the wall...I would add a concrete texture to the fountain itself with a little dirt on it.

                                      Thanks - Looking for a nice concrete/similar texture at the moment. It was a nice marble texture but didn't show up. 😳

                                      Thanks again for the comments, but 😒 sorry to disappoint as its part of the rendering software, that you apply as a property to sketchup materials, a bit similar to the free tree program from Al(but when rendered comes out 3d), Its a ground cover version that I have adapted for ivy. Maybe Al would consider a ground cover/ivy version for sketchup. ❓
