Adjust Water Reflection Intensity
Access Shader Settings
Open the shader options menu while in-game by pressing the designated key (usually found in your controls settings or shader menu). Look for the Water or Reflections category in the settings panel.
Fine-Tune Reflection Strength
Locate the water reflection slider or toggle. This controls how much the sky and surrounding environment mirror on water surfaces. Lower values create subtle, realistic reflections; higher values make water act like a mirror.
Test Your Changes
Navigate to a lake or ocean and observe how the water responds. Reflections should update in real-time. If reflections appear too bright or washed out, reduce the intensity. If water looks flat and unrealistic, increase it slightly.
Consider Performance
Higher reflection quality may impact frame rate on lower-end systems. If you experience lag, reduce the reflection setting incrementally until performance stabilizes while maintaining your preferred visual style.
Save your settings when satisfied. Changes persist across sessions unless you reset to defaults.
