Abstract:
For a real-time visualization of one of the Dutch harbors we needed a realistic looking water surface. The old shader showed the same waves everywhere, but inside a harbor waves have many different directions and sizes. To solve this problem we needed a shader capable of visualizing flow. We developed a new algorithm called Tiled Directional Flow which has several advantages over other implementations.
