[Effects - Final] River Rapids effect

Here is a effect I've been working on for a little river running down Qinling. Still very much WIP thou hope you like it, video is also a little old now

YouTube Video
ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed.

I've already fixed some bits, don't look so bad while swimming though the rapid now, and for any one who asks is it possible to sweep people down river, the answer is most likely not, but even if it is possible it is far too much work to make it worth it and it would be probaly very buggy at the end of it too. Also ignore the lag, my PC was running the editor before and recoding at full rez, needed a restart

EDIT: v2 of my River Rapids, also showing off a little white water rafting

Sound Vol has been tweaked since the vid

Looks fantastic. Adds so much more depth (pun) to the water.

A shame you can't get a nice ride down the river, I would've thought it could be possible with some kind of friction setting... but I guess that would only apply if the soldier's feet were on the ground... and everywhere else on the map instead of water-specific.

Even then, I am still curious if you are able to make this affect on a curvy river instead of something straight? (eg, would the 'flowing' effect curve, instead of move in a straight path -- so if you had a curvy river, it would follow the curve, instead of going straight and seemingly 'underneath' the terrain).

Nice water man. That is pretty awesome.

Also, love the more reasonable recoil.

I wish we had a cloning machine that created clones with an hour long lifespan so they would'nt overtake the real rhino after they found out they were clones like in that one movie (i'm totally making up/Saw on sci-fi lastweek)

Peta has been notified and will be burning down your house or just your mailbox, depending on the age of the rhino in question.
