Cryzzz's Placeable Water

Ever wanted to place water anywhere in your park, instead of being limited by the base game’s terrain and water tools? This mod adds a new Aquatic section to the Foliage build menu, giving you a set of fully placeable water props that can be used like normal scenery objects.

These water pieces are made for custom scenery builds, decorative ponds, swamps, marshland areas, artificial lakes, themed habitats, dioramas and detailed park decoration.

Important:

This mod is purely decorative.

For the time being, making the water fully functional is not really possible for me, or at least I do not currently know how to make it work properly within JWE3’s modding limitations. Right now, the water pieces are purely decorative and are meant for visual scenery building only.

If functional placeable water ever becomes possible or if I figure out a reliable way to make it work, I will definitely try to implement it in a future update.

This mod currently includes 8 placeable water props:

• []Translucent Water Block[/]

  []Translucent Water Cylinder[/]

  []Clear Water Block[/]

  []Clear Water Cylinder[/]

  []Dark Water Block[/]

  []Dark Water Cylinder[/]

  []Swamp Water Block[/]

  []Swamp Water Cylinder[/]

• []Adds a new Aquatic section under the Foliage build menu[/]

  []Includes 8 placeable water props[/]

  []Adds a new Translucent Water option for very clear, see-through water [/]

  []Includes block and cylinder versions for each water type[/]

  []Uses a transparent and animated JWE3 water shader[/]

  []Improved visible wave/ripple effect compared to the first version[/]

  []Includes depth-style coloring for a more natural water look[/]

  []Fully placeable anywhere like a scenery object[/]

  []Selectable and deletable like normal scenery[/]

  []Freely resizable[/]

  []Great for custom ponds, swamps, marshes, lakes and scenery builds[/]

  []Purely decorative, not functional terrain water[/]

  Water types:

  • []Translucent Water: A very transparent water type made for situations where you want clear, see-through water. This version is much more transparent than the normal Clear Water, making it great for clean ponds, pools, shallow water areas, display tanks, decorative lakes and builds where visibility through the water is important.[/]

    []Clear Water: Clear blue water with a more visible surface while still staying fairly transparent. Great for clean ponds, pools, decorative lakes and more controlled park builds.[/]

    []Dark Water: A deeper, muted blue water type with a much less transparent surface. Perfect for darker ponds, deeper-looking lakes and more dramatic scenery areas.[/]

    []Swamp Water: Improved murky green water, made specifically for swamps, marshes, dirty ponds and natural wetland-style areas. This version has been adjusted to look greener and more fitting for swamp builds.[/]

    Installation instructions:

    If you have an older version of this mod installed, remove the previous version first before installing this update.

    • []Extract the new zip file.[/]

      []Copy the CryzzzWaterBodies folder into:[/]

      []C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Jurassic World Evolution 3\Win64\ovldata

      If your game is installed in a different location, go to your JWE3 install folder and place the CryzzzWaterBodies folder inside: Win64\ovldata[/]

      []Launch the game.[/]

    You can find the new water pieces here:

    Build Menu → Foliage → Aquatic

    Important update note:

    If you already used an older version of the mod, remove the old version from your ovldata folder first and replace it with this new version.

    The new version is made to automatically replace the water pieces that were already placed with the previous version, so you do not need to manually remove or rebuild your old placed water in-game. Just delete the old mod files from your ovldata folder and install the new version.
