Hey guys,

I've sent out a alpha builds to all of the beta people, so they get to test a functioning FS Water Configurator.

Hey guys,

Just another quick update, nothing too relevant.

So far, the alpha builds I've sent out are working fine.  They're not fool proof though, but that's to be expected with an alpha build.

Anyway, here's the actual thing I've added:

Guess what it is.  Go on ;).

That's trully impressive job there, Str1ker !!  :o 8-)
Sorry I didn't read the complete post, but from the picture of the interface, I do not see anything that would allow the user to get back to the default values... is it in the profiles maybe ?

Thanks guys.

Buggs, you got it right, that button with the earth will open IE and bring you to the FSWC website.

Daube, the direct shader file functions, for backing up, setting, or restoring the shader files are on the 'More Functions' window.  You click on the 'More...' button to get there.

I'm still doing shader file work, but once that's ready, I'm fool-proofing the shader file backup system, so no fool can miss it, unless he's the #1 fool in the world ;).

No, but that's a bloody good idea.  I'll put that in V2.1 maybe.

It's actually a quick test of alpha-blending.  This is just the beginning of the preview system, whereby an image will be displayed in the preview pane that'll change depending on certain slider values.

It'll be kinda hard to do, but it should be easy.

WTF did I mean by that :-??

Glad you're interested.

One thing though, any version you download, won't work.  The only versions that work are the ones with my beta team, who seem to have turned into my alpha team actually.

Either way, we're working hard on it.  I'm actually re-doing the interface so it'll look the same, but the interaction with it will be different, in the sense of transitions, previews, etc.
