Hi Thomas,
Thanks for the credit and link to remind me of that IRTC round. Too far back for
me to remember but I dare say I got the idea for the texture
from something by Gilles Tran (I think the slope idea came from one of his snow
scenes), I doubt I was smart enough to come up with it
myself ;-)
It is a shame the winning image of that round by Rene
Bui did not have the source code as the textures in that one are far better than
mine. (good to have something to aim for though).

Gilles is the Master of us all indeed :-)
It looks to me as if Rene makes a strong use of image_maps as a basis
for his textures here, with a smart layering of grime and tags, but it
is done in a masterful way.

I can go on scratching my itch, but it seems better to do something
about it ;-)
I added a little bit of turbulence to the waterline of the beach and
flushed some more sea water into the estuary and increased the turbulence.
Not really visible here, but upstream the river turns gradually into a
more uniform pea soup; seawards, the silt gradually sinks to the bottom.
I know: the flow should follow more the contours of the land. I don't
know how to do that presently as the whole water media is a huge sphere,
and I wonder how to make it interact with the height_field...

I find your commitment to Gancaloon motivational.
I would only wish it showed a bit of DOF in the distance to look like a photo :)

Thanks indeed. Gancaloon is a piece of myself ;-)

Yes, that is something which I keep in mind for when I have nothing else
to do :-)

Perhaps carving the sphere using a difference with the height-field?
P.S. Such a city at the evening (when people back home) is full of the
[procedural] smokes of the fires lit for the supper...

I am afraid that is only too true. I have escaped detection until now...
