I'm sure this has been asked before, but how easy is it to create realistic waterfalls and rivers in Vue4? This is one aspect that I see lacking in Vue4 when compared to VistaPro 4, which would allow the user to draw a river on a base map and create relatively realistic rivers, with motion effects, and if it goes over steep slopes/cliffs it looks like a waterfall. The same thing in VistaPro give the effect of a "foaming" shoreline if the wave direction is fast to shore! Lakes are also easy to create in VistaPro4 A minor comment on Vue4 I know, but one I hope will be addressed in a future full release, with the inclusion of a river and lake automatic creation function! I'll upload some VistaPro images if people are interested. The major limitation of Vistapro is the data/map size, which I think is something like 1024x1024 pixels. Lester

Well, rivers are relatively easy... Waterfalls are hard... The site above will show you how to make rivers and speak in depth about several other Vue things...
