So, a visitor sent me this pic that he took on my island which looks almost photoreal:
 But when I use the WindLight client, my water looks like this:  My graphics settings are at Ultra in the viewer, with Anisotropic (sp?) filtering enabled. My computer's a Gateway NX 860XL with NVIDIA GeForce Go 7800 video (256mb video RAM). Is there something I can flip on or tweak to get that awesome water? _____________________

Hello Wildfire
I do have the same problem with my NVIDIA Gforce Go 7900 GS You can only have the nice water by turning off the atmosphering rendering then you'll see the water You do this in Preferences-Graphics Both together seems impossible I already downloadet the latest driver but it didnt help- Shit. If you find a solution pleaselet me know Bodhi Moo |

Yep disabling the atmospheric rendering gave me working water (???). Bizarre. Thanks!

I get the same problem, but even disabling Atomospheric Shaders dont fix it.
Im using ATI 2900 Pro with the latest drivers and Vista.. guess its something odd? |

Yeah I have done the same thing as well.. I got a ATI Radeon RX9250, with plenty of memory (had to upgrade and add in order to use SL
 )... Yet Im not getting the beautiful water and skies that I have seen in many other photos.. Sucks too, cause I am such a photo freak.. lol |
