SyntaxThe Water type exposes the following members.
ConstructorsMethods| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | Clone |
Creates a new Water that is a clone (deep copy) of the current instance.
|
 | CloneCore |
Makes the instance a clone (deep copy) of the specified Water.
|
| CreateInstanceCore |
When implemented in a derived class, creates a new instance of the Water
derived class.
|
| Equals | (Inherited from Object.) |
| Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |

RemarksThis class defines the appearance of a body of water. Two normal maps (NormalMap0 and NormalMap1) define the wave ripple structure on the water surface. The normal maps are scrolled over the water surface to create the sense of an animated water surface.
The water surface is rendered using a specular highlight, a reflection and the refracted scene under the water surface. Underwater is lit using light extinction and scattering, similar to exponential fog. UnderwaterFogDensity defines the extinction properties which create the water color.
Cloning: When the Water is cloned the normal map textures are not duplicated. The textures are copied by reference.
