Quote - . Are you using the magnets to deform a "ground plane" object there (with a water material applied to it)?

 

The hut in the middle of the ocean came with a water plane and I used ithe magnets on that. But you could use it on a primitive prop. That is BB's Sphere for the sky and the water plane that came with the hut was round and expanded (scaled in x and z) by me to fit. Otherwise there was gap on the edges and the light got under the plane and started bouncing under the water plane and the sand plane instead of going thru the water plane first. With the gap around  the edges it looked like a typical render of mine----crap. Closing the gap helped a bunch but still messing around with the water and sand plane testxures and the lights
