Water Ripple

Creating ripples with ROBLOX's smooth terrain

[mrpuffy]

2015 : water ripple

2021 : realistic faces and emos

[robloxmusicassociation]

Everyone: ”Five years later and we still don’t have this”

Me: How am I now seeing this?

[thedoomtrainer]

Players: "Could we have this...?"
Roblox: *"Rthro it is"*

[ae-coue]

7 years later and this is still impressive. Shows how shit roblox is for not updating the water system in so long though

[Joopitah]

Ah yes youtube recommendations bring us together, yet again.

[camypasteria]

This pops up in people's recommended 5 YEARS LATER

[koffeekatz]

The fact that it’s made in roblox makes it even more interesting

[readyredpanda]

I am impressed that the waves actually add their amplitudes to each other when crossing

[samsonadetula]

funny how YouTube just recommended this to us 5 years later

[mineblox]

over five yaers later and we still dont have this

[Spookfishspecter]

This gives me an indescribable level of happiness for seemingly no reason

[jono]

Love when YouTube recommends me this video from 2015 in the big 2025. 10/10 would watch again

[Notenz]

“Oh this looks cool”



*5 years ago* 😔

[kubozaos]

Everyone: **complaining about not having this after 5 years**

Me: How many devices will roblox blow up by adding this?

[Butterking]

thanks youtube, I was really hoping a video of rippling water from 6 years ago would be in my recommended, and here it is

[XianAkaXgamerYT]

Funny youtube recommended this to everyone 3 YEARS AGO and decided to recommend it again, Props to Youtube and this guy for showing us this masterpiece.

5 years ago when tix was still in "Roblox"


Everyone: Big Ripple

[verified_tinker]

Was about to write, "Cool, but it's just a vertex displacement shader, " and then realized this shit was made in Roblox.

[pks]

It's insane how this was made almost 6 years ago

The thing is ripples already exist, just not in the way we think. When you adjust water settings there is a mode for ripples, but it doesn’t interact with physics. There can be a more simpler way to add ripples. When an object falls into water, the ripples that already exist will move outward, instead of heavier waves like that. The downside to what has been made here is that it can lag the game a lot, especially if there are large bodies of water. What happens if two ripples touch eachother? Do they pass through eachother? What happens if a ripple touches a solid object? Does it rebound? Will the ripple ever end in an ocean? The possibilities are endless, which can make this very problematic.
