Curt,
Do you select which water texture to use based on the VMAP data, or is
there something smarter going on like looking at the size of the water
body? The reason I ask is that while the water textures we have are
quite nice for large bodies of water and man made reservoirs, they don't
look anything at all like rivers or small lakes. The Potomac, for
instance, goes from a greenish brown to just plain mud colored in spots.
River textures could also be made in a way that allows the shallows near
the banks to look more realistic. I would be happy to cook up some nice
textures with proper colors for rivers and small lakes if you would be
able to use them.
