I plan on using IBL to creat a water scene with the sea creature freebies from CP. How can I create an underwater appearance in P6? I was thinking of doing depth of field or changing the atmosphere, but I'm not sure if anyone has tried this before.

Here's a simple approach: just a one-sided square in front of the fishies, acting as a screen. Lights in front of the screen. I added a Spots node to give it some shimmer; probably should have made the effect stronger.

You can also use a light gel to give an effect of light through water effect. Look at the second and third page of quim2001's product...there is a watery effect there, to show you what I mean. (There may be other light sets that do the same thing; this is the one I happen to be familiar with--and one can do one's own). If you're not a purist, you can add the effect in postwork. dreamsosweet has a nice [tutorial](http://www.sweetdreamsdigital.com/WaterTut.html) for Paint Shop Pro, if anyone is interested.

Maybe the caustic light gels in Runtimedna's Poser5 freestuff are useful.

The link is to a thread earlier this spring where I was attempting to get an underwater effect for a V3. It includes some info on doing an underwater light using procedural shaders in P5/6.

I know it is too late, but RuntimeDNA had some caustic light gels for Poser 5 that would work in Poser 6. They are free and someone else might find them of use if they haven't discovered them already. PapaBlueMarlin...did you delete the graphic? I went to look and I got a message that it was removed. :(

PapaBlueMarlin ( ) posted Tue, 08 November 2005 at 5:11 PM

Yes, I removed it since I wasn't completely satisfied with it. It's still in my gallery at RDNA though.

Very nice. I look forward to seeing the finished product. Thank you!

Resurrected from the lost wiki link.

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)

Made this after reading some of bagginsbill posts.  The link from the page leads back here to an older forum thread on the subject.
