Important:Does not work with the Water shader.
Refract can be used as a workaround for dynamic refraction with cubemapped reflections, although Valve does not provide any materials which do this.
Existing materials which are compatible include:
Confirm:Does the Water shader work if using cubemap reflections and refractions, instead of the real-time versions? This would still be beneficial for the ability to have two normal maps scrolling in different directions.
Bug:Water must be part of the world in 
Left 4 Dead series otherwise it doesn't work properly and acts as non-solid brush.

Water entity notes (edit):
Important:Does not work with the Water shader.Refract can be used as a workaround for dynamic refraction with cubemapped reflections, although Valve does not provide any materials which do this.
Existing materials which are compatible include:
nature/water_movingplane.vmt(LightmappedGeneric)nature/water_dx70.vmt(LightmappedGeneric)nature/hazard_liquid.vmt(LightmappedGeneric) (only in
)liquids/!greenslime.vmt(UnlitTwoTexture) (only in
)
Confirm:Does the Water shader work if using cubemap reflections and refractions, instead of the real-time versions? This would still be beneficial for the ability to have two normal maps scrolling in different directions.Bug:Water must be part of the world in Left 4 Dead series otherwise it doesn't work properly and acts as non-solid brush.Bug:In  Black Mesa, if this entity uses multiple brushes, VPhysics objects work incorrectly with this entity (the same for func_water). It looks like they are using BBox of this entity to calculate physics, instead of using brushes. This issue can be found in Interloper chapter. Separate water into several separate entities to avoid this bug.
