thanks for the reply, yeah the reeds are going to be below water level but i think they should be fairly visible, giving them some randomness, is something i will do :)
as for the crane, i hadnt really thought about it when i was modelling, but i think it could traul along for junk or something like that
thanks for your thoughts!
id suggest you make sure it has a purpose, you often see things included in game worlds and scenes without purpose that really just stand out as being unesacary and can make the world/scene appear less beleivable. Allthough this is usually more common in space station themed worlds... ooh look a pipe with some green goo in it... brilliant :P
this is just an update on it, havnt had a chance to change it to much just messing with the water

interesting, reminds me of the coast section of half life 2 where you use a electromagnet on a crane. What's the purpose of your crane at the end of the jetty by the way? A suggestion i'd make is to randomize the weeds a bit more in scale and rotation (if you dont want to include more variations on the actual mesh), its really fine detail work that may not be necesary when the scene is textured (how visible will they be below what i'm assuming is water level?) but if essentially its the only thing thats stood out to me right now. I'll leave it up to someone more qualified to talk about the other details ;)
