Hey, that's looking sweet. You might also want to think about using some volutmetric spotlights with the same texture as a projection to simulate the light beams travelling through the water...

Wow - that's looking real good so far...

You can get FPrime from www.worley.com (as long as you send Steve a nice fat cheque - see the Ordering Link)

thanx for the comments guys, do feel that the scene is still way to hard edged.

Can only work with the twitching puter so long till it dies LOL.

No matter.

Would how ever like to do alot more to the scene.

Simple, the Queues to get FPrime have now died down somewhat. (ie: Steve is now back to processing orders as they arrive). I think he's probably posted off license keys now to at least 80% of the Lightwave community
