Within Links' graphics settings, where do you have the "Picture quality" slider? I think the 2-3 steps furthest to the left turn off water reflections, although as I recall, the water then tended to look darker then than in your screenshot...

With 2.86 I am not surprised you are having a problem with reflective water. I have tested many versions of dgVoodoo and most of the later ones exhibit this problem.

I have referred it to the developer but he only has the trial version of Links and Skelton Coast does not show the problem.

So with dgVoodoo it is best to start with a known working version. The version pointed to on this forum is a good place to start.

This is version 2.7, there are later versions that work, but they do not perform any better and many versions are getting hard to find. If anything I think version 2.55 may offer a bit better performance, but is hard to find.
