Hi all.
Merry Christmas
I would like to know possible ways which i could fill this hole.
I would like the water to be still. + the river bed isnt flat.
Thanks

sure ya can. all u have to do is find your favorite water texture and make a brush the height of the water, and the width of the widest point. its ok if the water comes out of the sides becasue im guessing no one can see it anyway. if they can make several brushes ontop of eachother that make up the general shape of the hole and give them all the same texture.

If you need more that one brush with water texture on it put the water texture on the top and bottom of the brush and nodraw on the sides or else the seam between the two brushes will show .

yes yes yes, ALWAYS, regardless of the brush, apply no draw of caulk to the sizes of a brush that cant be seen. im curious, did u use radiants lod thing to make that terrain, a picture, or some other program. its looks nice.

cool, good job. fill it up, i wanna see it done. also a support might be cool to make it look more realistic.

i like it. looks nice, u might wanna put something as a protection so a player doesnt fall in and cant get out. maybe clip part of it soe u cant sink all the way down.

This is what it looks like now, the bridge lifts up and down and makes a sound, thanks to Wacko for sharing on how I would do it!

I dont know what you mean fall in?
Fall in the water?
Fall through the terrain?
If the player couldnt fall into the water it wouldnt be realistic...

what i mean is fall in the water, what im saying is u may want to put somehting that makes him either not fall in, like a guard rail or something, or put a hurt trigger like hes losing breath. anyhting that wouldnt make him get stuck there till he decides to kill himself.
