    Keep in mind very likely NOBODY here has ever used or even seen the system you speak of, and we certainly have never seen your code, and you have failed to indicate what you're even trying to do, except that it "didn't work very well."

    Here is a useful structure to solicit technical help from a forum:

    How to report your problem productively in the Unity3D forums:

    http://plbm.com/?p=220

    This is the bare minimum of information to report:

    - what you want
    - what you tried
    - what you expected to happen
    - what actually happened, log output, variable values, and especially any errors you see
    - links to documentation you used to cross-check your work (CRITICAL!!!)

    this has nothing to do with me or my code, these are 2 purchased assets from the asset store in a completely new project,

    i have lux water and beautify v1 if i place an object say a cylinder so bottom half under water, camera is above water also, switch on the outline effect in beautify and the outline is visible on the whole cylinder looking at it from above the water, it should only be above the water level or it looks silly, if i leave in play mode and go to scene view it works properly, only the view from the camera is wrong, i have contacted both developers, but have no fix yet, i also tried it with aquas water instead of lux and the same is happening

    so i have found a free asset on asset store called OUTLINE TOOLBOX and it seems to be working well, but does anyone know how to make the outline thicker, i have basic knowledge of shader scripting, but not very good, hae contacted the developer but had no reply, have looked at the shader code but nothing resembles thickness, only mentions weight, can anyone help or take a look at the asset as it is free and see if you know how to do it

    thank you
