Thank you so much! It is sure looking better! I will have to change the other nodes.
 
I never would have come up with those settings.  I was trying to make only minimal changes to the default material settings that I showed since it did look ok in P7. But with your settings I think it will look fantastic in P8.  

Thank you  also for the link that  showed what the water should look like.  Your animations always look great and as much as I loved  horserider,  Tink on roller skates is still my favorite. :-)
