Realtime Water: Realistic real-time wave simulation and propagation in very large water scenes

More fantastic real-time water by Hilko Cords. Note ! All things are realy swimming, interacting with the water and wave generating! For Details visit: http://www.hilkocords.de

Can this technique work in a bounded body of water (a pool, canal, etc). Also, is there a reference implementation somewhere I can check out? 

[dosensport]

@fraserofthenight yes you can ;) but there is no reference implementation yet. for details on reimplementing this approach see hilkocords.de

@dosensport I just read over the paper... why do you do the surface generation on the CPU instead of using Geometry Shaders to generate the surface on the GPU?

[dosensport]

@fraserofthenight i dont know. i am not the author but a friend and so i guess, you should contact him. see hilkocords.de ;)

Can I run this in Blender 2.57?

[dosensport]

@blower05 I don't think so. It's all self-implemented but I currently don't know the facilities of blender. You may read the paper at hilkocoords.de to get an impression of how it works - and maybe you can redo something alike in blender.

@blower05 yes they are. their swimming is done with a rigid body simulation ;)

Is the floatation of the objects and boats real?

[visnevskiscom]

Those waves remind me the feeling of a real rowing so much. Already want to play even if it's about just floating around :)
