Water system or water plane?

Hey everyone
I have a plain question
Performance wise which is better water system plugin or water shader plane ?

It depends on the shader for the plane. Many ways to do water. Why not try the new ‘single layer water’ shader. That works great if you don’t need all this shenanigans…

I’m not really good with materials so I was just planning on getting that marketplace asset: Water Materials in Materials - UE Marketplace

I don’t think the single layer water would fit in my scene (if it is going to look exactly like the one in the video)

This is also SLW

He just coded it to look stylized.

Of course, why not get the asset also. It is free ( isn’t it? ).

Yea it’s free but If it’s gonna cost me more performance then there’s no need for it

But just for clarification slw is better for performance than the water plugin right?

Yes :slight_smile: ( generally speaking ).
