When i place a concrete block in the water or across the water some how the reflection in the water stays the same.
It seems a bit out of place to see the background still in the water when it clearly would be blocked in real life.

Any one got a solution for this problem? I tried putting some occ in the concrete blocks but it stayed the same.

Not all object have reflections.  These are some of the dysfunctionalities that we have to deal with.
I don't think my battle bay map pillars show up in the water either.

It looks strange....
I can see the trees in the reflection inside a tunnel.

You should make the tunnel out of different objects.

There hollow yes and they go way down in the ground already.
Maybe like deez pointed out, the best way is 2 scrap it and start over  Tongue

The problem whit that is its the start/base of the map and i made a bunch of other stuff on top of it.(and it looks awesome  Grin )
I started a new river map just in case  Wink

Try platform 3, and just slide it under all of that right at the top of the water.  And if you don't get a reflection from that you'll just have to find another object.

The idea was to let the water go true it and boats.
I made a "river meets canal" map whit a pump station in between.
So its not just 1 tunnel but 6 or 7 so its a lot of stuff 2 add....

How did they miss stuff like this when they dev. it?
Just like the hollow stuff...its like they ran out of time  Tongue
