Tigrah2k Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 Can anyone help me figure out how to create functional water above height 0? I'm almost certain that by now Bethesda has this in newer games, if not they should. But I'd really like to manage it in Morrowind.
Dragon32 Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 Functional, how? I know of Dongle water meshes (basically a flat plane mesh) and someone (Turija?) applied some MGE XE-esque effects to them. If you mean functional as in swimmable I think you'd be out of luck. Best idea I have is to download Tamriel Rebuilt and see how they've done it, chances are that'd be one of the best examples out there.

Probably only in newer games, but it should...you would need pretty solid scripting knowledge, and it will never be 100% like exterior 0 Z level standard water.In order of difficulty:splashable: exampledrownable: this should be not impossible to script based on player Z level, but to be very precise you should take into account player race, the GMST settings for drowning time, and probably need MWSE scripting for reading the GMSTswimmable: in theory there is a new Code Patch settimg enabling forcing player animations by script...
Tigrah2k Posted April 17, 2016 Author Posted April 17, 2016 facinating. I'm going to have to take a look into this. I haven't experimented with script extender yet. I have it downloaded to my old pc though. I will probably stay away from doing anything too in depth until I get a newer pc, so I can more easily download programs, and upload pieces for assistance. Still, very good advice. Hopefully at some point, someone will impress upon Bethesda to add this ability to the game engines in general.
