I've heard about some scripted particle system that causes splashing when an avie walks into a body of water like a pool. Does anyone know where I can find that?

I want to make my reflecting pool more 'interactive'! LOL

Here's my reflecting pool...

Jillian Callahan makes some that's pretty popular, I'd check her picks and see if you can find it there. Also Jesrad Seraph makes some if I remember right.

The problem with this is that it's all either no-copy or no-transfer, so if you want to sell (or give away) a pool, you can't use it. Fair enough if they don't want their work being resold, but that means it's still valid for someone to ask how to make their own from scratch.

I have no problems getting Jillian's splashable water.. I just don't remember where I got it. I may have some in inventory that I'll be happy to pass along to you, just have to look

I don't know how other people do it, but I would

a) detect collision (collision_start event)
b) get the position of the colliding object with llDetectedPos() in said event
c) rez a temp on rez particle generating prim in that position, adjusted for water surface

you could rez whatever instead of water particles, like rotating ducks or something

Blaze, that's a lovely snapshot

That's pretty good

How do you make it reflective like that? Is that related to shiny in any way? I've thought of attending some of the water classes, they look like they'll be fun to play with.

thanks for all the help so far!

Joy sent me Jillian's script in world and that seems to have done the trick for the most part. It only splashes when you enter or leave a prim, but that's cool enough. I don't expect people to be frolicking in my reflecting pool!

just wanted to have that detail in there

As for the reflection, It's double prims, with an upside down build underneath the water/ground layer. It's been a lot of fun to build. I had to do it at 250m up so I could build the bottom side. Couldn't really build a store in the sky before p2p, without confusing too many people on how to get to my store.
