So simply enough I am having issues with the post process system for water.
As you can see I am pretty far underwater and the post process hasn’t taken effect. (ue5 Manny mannequin for scale)
But if I go just a little deeper the post process suddenly takes effect. the post process volume seems to be hugging the landscape and I can not figure out how to raise it to water level. I am sure its some setting I overlooked but I just can’t find it, and my googling isn’t giving me anything but stuff about the ocean height or how to change the settings of the post process volume.
