Create AMAZING Water in Godot Engine - Step-by-Step Tutorial

[@stayathomedev]

Hey! Came across your video. Thanks for the mention!

[@iDigvijaysinhG]

Hey, I did not expect to get the comment from you, you are the inspiration for me.

[@stayathomedev]

@@iDigvijaysinhG keep up the great work 👍

[@donaldwestmoreland4381]

Thank you so much. Love the way you teach. I can see where to make changes in experimenting!

[@iDigvijaysinhG]

I am glad you liked it and thanks for nice comments (yup I read both). Boosts my confidence.

[@owenlloyd2528]

Thank you. Also, good to see your face. :)

[@通行人A-k3q]

You are a magician! Full of inspiration😂🎉

[@psyantologist]

neat! good tutorial :)

[@psyantologist]

I'll have to admit that I already fail at reproducing the sun-like DirectionalLight and getting the WorldEnvironment to look like yours 😅

[@iDigvijaysinhG]

No worries, I have a World environment node in my scene, there you just need to set procedural sky material. There you can play around with colors in sky and ground section and for sun you can tweak sun settings. Then you need a Directional light3d node and set the color you want your Sun to be. Cheers!

[@psyantologist]

@@iDigvijaysinhG Thank you kindly :)

[@psyantologist]

@@iDigvijaysinhG Is the child of the Directional light what gives the sun this sphere shape that reflects on the surface of the water?

[@iDigvijaysinhG]

No, there is the "sun" section in the procedural sky material, there you can tweak the settings for sun shape and then the sun will automatically follow the directional light angle. The reflection on water will come from the metallic and roughness values from the shader.

Awesome tutorial!! Earned a sub 😁. Do you think you could do a Buoyancy tutorial in the future using your shader? The tutorials that are currently on KZbin don't seem to work with Godot 4.3... Keep up the good work!

[@iDigvijaysinhG]

Thanks, And I will give it a try.

[@anomalyaces9204]

I was really hoping to see that foam color implementation. Is it simple to add or am I missing something? Great video friend!

[@iDigvijaysinhG]

Yup it is easy enough, just something like ALBEDO = water_color + (foam * foam_color);

[@anomalyaces9204]

@iDigvijaysinhG oh excellent! Still learning shader code and this video was a great. Thanks for the follow up!

[@WiLDbEAsTGameSHere]

maybe try a trendy cut and run the trimmer (on 0 or 1) on facial hairs (grow beard too) , you will look good. btw awesome tutorial edit: small amount of facial hairs will look good (trimmed to be precise)

[@psyantologist]

Beard length allocation scales logarithmically with programming expertise while maximum allocated hair length scales exponentially

Love this tutorial 🖐️🖐️👍👍

[@iDigvijaysinhG]

Thanks

[@Infinte_log]

Bro do make a video about depth. By the way nice video

[@iDigvijaysinhG]

Will do. Hopefully soon😅

The Raymarching template shader file linked is not the same anymore that the one used in the tutorial

[@iDigvijaysinhG]

Hey, I double checked the file and it is correct one, you just need to tweak the #define variables that is the only difference.

[@MikeMcRoberts]

Does it react though? e.g. if a boat were to pass through the water would you see bow waves etc.?

[@iDigvijaysinhG]

Nope, but I might make a video about that in the future.

[@MikeMcRoberts]

@@iDigvijaysinhG great. Thanks.

[@RenzoMassaro]

When I create what you did and put it in a terrain then it has a lot of flickering at the horizon

[@iDigvijaysinhG]

Hey Renzo, It seems like a ray marcher issue, try tweaking those #defines to see if it fixes the flickering.

[@bigedmundo8100]

Thanks for the great tutorial. I'm new in Godot. Could you please do another tutorial for the water, a motorboat controller? I've tried Rigidbody3D, Characterbody3D. I can't seem to get it to work. I can't find anything suitable on the internet either. It would be really nice if you did it. Thanks

[@iDigvijaysinhG]

Hey, I will see what I can come up with.

[@insidiousmaximus]

Amazing if you live in 1970

[@iDigvijaysinhG]

I am curious, could you elaborate?
