Creating Water for a Pool

[Anonymous]

Can anybody give me some advice on creating water inside of a pool. I have attached a picture of some work i saw on the web. I was wondering if i can get some lights to reflect under water like how they have it in this pic. Thanks in advance for the help you guys.

2 things:

1) David Nicholson Coles Water object at Objects Online
2) Lightworks in ArchiCAD - The Things You need to Know by Dwight Atkinson.
3) optional - fly to Calgary and attend Dwight's Seminar on Thursday, March 16

And what those things help you do is model the CONTEXT, so that the surface operates like water and the underwater lighting operates like lighting in water should.

What you can't do is create diffraction - LightWorks doesn't do that.

I can send you a copy of the book out this weekend if you like.

or find a water you like from another pool or lake and paste in your picture..
