I noticed that the shallow water system overrides the original water body river layer. thus, i canot change velocity river width afterwards in case im not satisfied.
am i missing something? is there a velocity setting in the shallow river that i missed maybe?
Hello!
You can change certain settings in the material that is override (these settings are only for the shallow water material, it is important that shallow water is on the water component with baked Sim). Regarding the other river settings, you must select the river and then you can make the settings but don’t forget to reset shallow water for it to work.
Specifically, I also couldn’t change the velocity (I change the values but nothing happens)
yeah, in that case that’s pretty much useless to use shallow water or water body river if they are destructive.
Obviously when creating a river some spline points will need different velocity eg - hydrolic river pushes, steep slope and more
but thanks for the answer body
one notice that caught my attention, maybe you need to rebake in a live sim and only then bake?
Basically, whenever you make changes to the rivers, you will have to press the reset button to see the changes live, and after you finish modifying, press bake to bake the material.
