    Well that just sucks :( I hope you'll continue developing at least for your own website, because i really need this kick-ass water (have luckily purchased it on your own website ;) ) but as of right now i cannot use it (unless you have changed the shader to work with Unity5 B9 and above???) until Unity5 is fully supported! but i really love the sanders and the looks of the water ;)

    Hopefully you can get a reasonable explanation from UT A/S...

    I really like that! Any time plans for the arrival of FFT GPU waves?

    Are you sure guys you are more interested in GPU FFT waves than CPU FFT waves?
    I mean if I do the GPU ones, collision will not work (will be on the plane before the FFT deformation)
    If I do on the CPU, then the collision that are made on the CPU too will work as expected with buoyancy etc...

    What do you think?

    Ooh want aware that GPU would mean no collision, definitely required so that rules that out.

    Actually the asset stores sales were about 40% of the total of my sales. But yet, the Asset Store is a huge promotional tool, some people only rely on it to buy...

    Still no sign of Unity, they finally cleaned up the latest v1.3 Mobile add-on that was still for sale not long time ago, sign of a sloppy friday evening decision.
    I think it might be because I was selling 30% more on the Asset Store than on my website, there might be some fine print about that in their EULA, or if not, they will add it very soon.
    Another lead is that I removed all my products 2 years ago after a long series of bug in the store that was not able to handle the size of my packs at this time... they might not want I come back. Still not very professional for a company who expect to make an IPO, I guess the investors and the new CEO doesn't know about what is happening in the kitchen. It can be a huge liability.

    GPU waves can be used in a game where the customer will not pilot the boats for example. It is possible to fake the buoyancy by moving the boat pseudo randomnly...

    Is it compatible for Unity 5.0 ?

    I think there is a requirement that the price elsewhere is not lower than that on the store. I remember reading that somewhere for sure, maybe that is the reason.

    I hope you can resolve this, maybe if you resubmit with a new price that is same as on the other sale prices.

    Sorry Guys, i cannot answer too often in these forums, because my accounts are continuously deleted.

    Here are some news about Smart Water 3d.
    1- it is compatible with Unity 5. And there are 2 versions that are maintained separately for v4 and v5.
    2- Smart Water 3D have changed a lot since its first release about 5 years ago (yep time goes fast!) I still improve it, check the video in this post and see by yourself what Smart Water can do in 1 pass and even on Mobile!
    3- Smart Water supports Mobile, Pro, DX-11 and has Underwater ready plugin.
    4- Smart Water has a full documentation, a powerful website with tutorials, and technical support.
    5- Smart Water 3D is on Facebook, that's the best place to get news. But also here http://www.smartwater3d.com, check the news!

    Here is a video of the new version 1.6... to be released soon. More videos and more news soon...
    Smart Water on Faceboolk: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Smartwater3d/1495826053962825

    This video shows the simplest PRO shader: no GPU waves in this one, just a flat plane.
