Classic Water "effects"

Perhaps the joke is on me, and everyone else has figured it out, but, I went into Classic really excited to see the ‘old’ look of water.

I vividly remembered it looking so nice, as if the light was shimmering across the surface.
Don´t get me wrong, the updated graphic quality looks great too! Just different. And I was just so fond of the old.

So I was surprised to come by the water, and see it looking exactly like it does in retail.

Until I realized, it´s my Graphics settings, that´s all out of whack. All I had to do was change Liquid Details down to Low.

Just sharing it here, in case someone else totally missed this too :slight_smile:

Changing it down to Low turns this:

into this:

I hope this can be of use to someone :slight_smile:

May your queue tonight be swift! :butterfly:

That water is so ugly. From the right angle you see they are just animated squares stitched together it looks gross.

Imho it’s an active choice to look at it this way.

Yeah I wondered why it looked so weird but then I put it on low and voila perfect vanilla water :heart_eyes:

If you set it to graphic preset level 3, it’s “classic” mode :smiley:

I find it weird why they named it from Low to Ultra, because to me the Ultra looks a lot worse than the Low one.

IMO: Low should be renamed to “Vanilla” or “Classic”, as “Low” doesn’t do it justice.
