Water Render
-
Hi forum,
I'm quite new to Vray and I wanted to render a swimming pool area. I've added a displacement map and everything looks fine except that the water doesn't seem to have a colour even tho i added a fog colour to it. The whole plane just appears transparent but I could see the displacement map. But its just transparent. Help! -
Do you have a picture of you render? I believe that in order for fog to work you need to have your water as an enclosed solid and have defraction on.
But to be honest I've never seen a pool with colored water. Usually you just see the color of the base of the pool, this is just my observation.

Go to the videos link that is pinned at the top of these forums, there is a video on pool water and caustics. This will answer all of your questions.
I really cannot stress enough, if you watch all of these vids, about 2 hours worth, you will really have a deep understanding of this plug-in.
