I was watching this morning this old FlightGear 1.9.1 recording, and I was thinking this moment is just here now, since I lost this file long ago. I know I can download it, but I rather just come back and watch it again :) Remember FlightGear 2.0 is out now.

kool.... where did u get them from?

and why does ur flightgear look so different from mine???

[planetacancun2]

The version I'm using is one of the latest code I downloaded and compiled on Ubuntu. That's why it looks a little different.

@flightgearx it should work, wat fg version are u using?

[flightgearx]

@Nelrockz1 But that doesnt work. Type in Flightgear Dynamic water effect in google and see in the forums. Anyway Tnx for your help

[Nelrockz1]

make sure that you have the latest FG 2.0 release though, you don't need FG GIT, just the latest FG 2.0 release from the FG website

@flightgearx you don't need to download the water effect, you just have to enable it

@Nelrockz1 The water effect

[Nelrockz1]

@flightgearx what do we have to download?

[flightgearx]

@Nelrockz1 But in the forums it says that we have to download something???

[Nelrockz1]

@flightgearx oh right, sorry, you have to enable it, what you do is go View > Rendering Options and then tick Water Reflection, Material Shaders, Particles and that should do it. Also, you have to go to Environment > Time Settings and then click the morning button as it usually works well in the morning. also, go over an area of water, preferably an ocean and then face towards the sun and you should begin to see "the effect"

@Nelrockz1 But that doesnt work

@flightgearx you have to download flightgear 2.0 i think
