Shallow Water brings a Shallow Water Simulation to Crest 5 with presets for both shorelines and streams.
This package is not required for shallow water in Crest 5. Crest 5 has wave attenuation as it did with Crest 4. This is an alternative approach for those who want next-generation features.
The Shallow Water package brings a Shallow Water Simulation to Crest 5. It can be used to achieve next-generation visuals by simulating shorelines and streams.
When simulating shorelines, the simulation can static or follow the camera. When simulating streams, the final output can be baked to a texture for fantastic performance.
Being a simulation, results depend on water sources and the terrain/geometry being fed into the simulation.
We provide sample scenes, documentation, tooltips and validation.
Sample scene selection may not include ones shown in marketing materials and screenshots.
Features
- Simulate shallow areas of shorelines (static or movable)
- Simulate streams with an option to baked the final output to a texture
- Simulate shallow water generally
Limitations
- Baking is editor only
These known limitations may be solved in future versions.
Requires Crest 5 and must meet same requirements.

Amazing breakdown — the numbered steps made it easy to follow.
Thanks , I have recently been looking for info about this subject for ages and yours is the greatest I have discovered so far. But, what about the conclusion? Are you sure about the source?
