How to make underwater lighting

Hello there, I was wondering how everyone else is able to see underwater in their ue4 but for me its just pure darkness, I added a super strong point light in front of the player camera but it only works underwater if im near something like the ocean floor. I want to be able to see stuff around the ocean. Btw I changed the water colour to black because the game of the name is black sea i want it to be black.


this is what it looks like in the middle of the ocean

this is when I reach the floor

I want to be able to see almost like this.

Hey @Jell.Buck!

Have you tried adding a post process volume under your water to brighten the are? This may give you the visibility you are looking for and also allow you to get a water effect going:

Any additional specifics you provide may go a long way in solving your problem!
