Hi, I have just finished a water shader for a map editor i'm working on. All works fine..well did work fine on my PC (Ati x1950). When i run the program on the computers on the PC's at university (NVIDIA) the clipping plane to clip the reflected geometry which goes above the water plane does not work and hence my reflections don't look right. If you get you eye right down to the water level the reflections become at some point correct, its definitely the clip plane problem because if I disable clip planes on my PC then i get the same results as NVIDIA machines. I have had some issues with NVIDIA vs ATI before where shadow mapping didnt work on nvidia (well the alpha of the texture) and it was because I only used RGBA pixel type and didn't give myself an explicit alpha channel. Is it possible the problem is something like this? ie do i need to give my self some stencil bits in the PFD or something? Any help would be much appreciated, having an ATI machine at home makes it difficult to debug this issue.
