When I put water in like I'm supposed to. Put a water texture on the top of the brush and tool/nodraw or something similar I don't really remember the water is just invisible from above. Help!?
You have a leak in you're map
Possible. I always have leaks luckily I recently learned how to easily find leaks. Thanks.

well you see, the leak is a little hole in the map. And like a blackhole, it sucks all the water out via the hole, and that's what creates the OP's problem.

He was pointing out a grammatical error.
Grammar nazis!

And I was pointing out what happens when you's ( you has ) a leak in your map.

it's "you have" not "you has" in this case.

Oh the irony
ITT: Bad spelling
Tie the water brush to func_water_analog (I don't know if there is such entity in HL2, but works pretty well in TF2)

Huh? Ok.
[QUOTE=Gmod Marto;17157629]Huh? Ok.[/QUOTE]
It was a stupid suggestion, but I fear you may not know any better, so I'll just explain: tying to func_analogue_water forces the water texture to be a cheap shitty version. This is a common symptom of a leak that the op has and fixing the leak should fix his water.
You could of course just put a skybox across the map and hollow it out, even if you have leaks it seems to work for me. you still have to brush the top of the nodraw with water, but if the water is floating mid air, then you need to brush the sides players can see with water.

No. This is terrible optimization, do not do this. FP is having a bad day today.

Thats more like it. Say why it's wrong, not some flaming, or something like that. And thanks, now I know why my water sometimes looks cheap, although I got it one time when experimenting with cubemaps.

not trying to be a back seat moderator... Just tired of seeing all these threads that couple very easily be avoided by searching google or using common sense and using the 'search' feature or just plainly looking in the mapping section and looking past the first page...[/QUOTE]
:holy:
Check if u can dive in ur water. If u can then change water texture, some of them are just invisible

Do yourself a favour and unsubscribe. He isn't a good mapper and teaches really bad habits.

For real

For example, he instructs people to make a hollowed out cube around their maps to fix leaks.
I wouldn't recommend watching his videos.

Why do that, when you can just use the zone tool, locate the leak, and remove it!
