how to increase projectedGrid density?

Is it possible to increase the density of points in post perspective space? I.e. increase the density of sampling of the water.

The problem I am having is that I have very high wave oscillations, and as a result I needed to increase the size of the camera frustrum (which I did by raising the mUpperBoundPlane), now however, the water is at a very low "resolution".

This is what my water looks like now:


When I move the camera closer to it, it looks fine. I want this granularity at the previous (bigger) height


Any help/hints would be really appreciated!

Hopefully this will help. You can set the current "camera elevation" above the water level. This fixes the problem. Just update it every frame to equal the global/world Y co-ordinate of your main player camera. You set it through the hydrax module options like so:

mHydraxModule->setOptions(Hydrax::Module::ProjectedGrid::Options(mComplexity, mStrength, mCameraElevation........ etc
