Hi Gerald

Yes you can, perhaps you could take an existing runway plate (there are round ones) and give it a new texture.
You then raise the plate in it's static entry.

[WxTech]

Why not simply add to the mesh of the object, making a water surface and supplying for it a partially transparent texture having a high specularity?

Or is there some property of a plate which is desired to realize, and which the usual modeling approach cannot supply?

Hi Gerald

Can you provide the cooling tower to me or provide a link to it.

[ljmagnum]

Dear genXgamer will try to send ur the link

Excellent! Have downloaded.

EDIT:

Okay done the simplest idiots method, what height would the water level be?
Pictured here is 20 metres.
If I know the height I'll know the diameter needed and erase what's not required.
Shadows will be removed.

EDIT 2:

Screenshot 2, of course you can use your own water texture.
