Hi All, I am trying to get to grips with Vue, and thought I would try and recreate something I used to like doing in good (very) old Vistapro. A flight past a lot of islands.

I'm getting to grips with the animation system which is not too bad at all, (though at the moment I seem to be creating stray key frames a lot!), but I am having big problems with the water.

I'm trying the presets, I'm trying tinkering with the presets. But all I get is a sort of glassy look.

The big problems are the razor sharp shore, and the transparency - I can't seem to get that 'fading at shallow depths' look that terragen can do so well.

Any clues? I've attached a picture.
Thanks,
Nick
