The usual workflow with AQUAS is to first create your scene, add AQUAS in the second step and then adjust water and underwater effects to fit your exact needs.

Quick Setup
AQUAS has been created to be as user friendly and quick to set up as possible and highly customizable at the same time.
Not only does it come with a Quick-Setup window that can add AQUAS to your scene with a few clicks, it is also fully integrated into Gaia, which allows you to equip your Gaia terrain with full featured water within seconds!

Flow Map Rivers
AQUAS comes with full flow map support. Flow maps blend in smoothly with the wave motions which allows the creation of remarkably realistic looking rivers. The integrated river setup menu allows to quickly create river planes and export the river reference texture to use as a blueprint for painting proper flow maps.

Buoyancy
The package contains a basic buoyancy effector that works on mesh object with or without collider components.

Depth Mask
AQUAS comes with a basic depth mask shader that can be attached to volumes inside which water won't render. This keeps water from rendering inside floating objects such as boats and ships.

AQUAS contains 6 mobile shaders for different performance levels and 6 high-quality shaders for web and desktop applications, as well as various presets for different usecases.
