Built-in texturing gives you control over the look of your fluids, while the texture and shading features of Fluid Effects extend the use of fluids for a whole different range of effects. You can:
- Add texture to fluids using the texturing capabilities of the built-in shader.
- Create 2D and 3D fluid textures.
- Create fluid shaders and assign them to volume primitives.
- Use fluids as particle shaders.
Fluid Effects also includes an Ocean texture and Ocean shader for open water effects. See Open water effects of the Fluid Effects guide.
