Hello there.. I'm creating a quite typical beach scene. The rest of the scene looks fine but there is one problem. The sand. The default sand material added in Vue 4 is not really what I need. What I would like to have is pure white, soft non rippeled sand. You know.. the way it looks in southern Bahamas or something. Now.. I've tried to mix materials, create completely new materials you name it, but I still cant get it to look reallistic. It becomes to flat, it doesn't look like billions of small sand stones, it looks like a bed sheet!! Like plastic. I can't get the little sparkling effect sand usually has. If anyone has got a solution to this problem, please let me know! I'm desperate ;) Thanks Olmen
