hi, I use the kinda abandoned water plugin of unreal engine and I still love to work with it.
There are a some people on the web who explained how to get the waterfoam working again in UE5.

I have achieved this by listening to this tutorial
UE5 Water Material Tutorial: Color, Transparency, Foam, and Caustics #unrealengine #gamedev

But I have an issue that no one else seems to have. The screenshot is supposed to show that the waterfoam just gets clipped very ugly after a certain distance.

Hello FallOut, let me help you with this, try adjusting the Global Distance Field View Distance
PS: This setting may have performance implications, especially in large scenes.

I encountered the same problem and found a solution thanks to a post on Reddit.

I hope this helps you as it helped me. If you still have any problems or questions, don’t hesitate to ask.
