After spending a good long time making a high detail canyon raceway for boats and planes, I decided to allow raising/lowering of the water via func_water_analog.
This was all fine and dandy until I messed with the water max hight a bit. Whada ya know? displacements all turned black, and have no texture as far as I can see. They worked fine up until I ajusted the max hight of the water. It first happened once, and after moving the water around a bit, it fixed, then when I reajusted the maxhight again, the issue reoccured and is not fixing. At first the water was black as well. Changing its material fixed it, however changing the material of the canyon did not help at all. That alone broke everything. Anyone know why, and/or how to fix?
