It's semi-possible.

Add your water, and then add a Banshee Barrier at the same height as the water(or a little above).

The only problem is that the vehicle will sink when you get out of it. Also, unless the vehicle is a flying vehicle(Banshee, Pelican...) you won't be able to control it while going over the water.

i think if you want you could add the water then just take out all the shaders for the gorund and stuff so its clear then when you drive on land it would really be just invisible ground but with the hills and stuff i dont' think that would work really good its better to just add the barrier and give your vehicles the properites of a banshee then remodel it and raise you water level where you want it

no im saying the hills because if you added water then drove over a hill your boat or w/e would be out of the water lol i guess you could add a gate from containment and make it a ramp though

haha your mod gave me a cool idea i have like 3 maps in progress lol
i think your best bet is adding the barrier for the banshee and making it the same lvl as the water lvl

Show me how you'd go about skinning the ground of coagulation to look like water? I've seen like 2 people do this and it looked horrid.

just add the barrier for the banshee skin the banshee to look like w/e then add a death barrier just a little way below that the one from under the map that way if you do lets say get out of fall off u die haha and it'l say killed by the guardians :D good idea ? also if you want to have a passanger boat you need that tut on how to add seats i never really understood it but if you mod had like ship to ship fights that would be cool alos if you could board the enemys ship hehe when you release your mod im gona download it no matter what all youv'e done
