In fairness there is that bit in Half-Life where the water level rises in a sewer, I don't know how to do it though.

Isn't the water just a brush with a water texture on it or something? Couldn't you just attach that brush to a func_train or something?

you can make water rise. when you set it to func_water you can see a list of properties. it will always be water but can be moved like a door using a button or the 'use' key.

Heres how to do it. you have to fine tune it though. make a block and tie it to func_water. then name it water and(or whtever) set the render mode to "texture - some light" if u want it to b transparent. set fx amount to however much transparency u need. go to yaw and click the down arrow and change it to "up". delay it for at least .2 secs. go to "lip" and change it to 1 for now (just to make sure it works). set contents to water (or lava ha). and the wave height can be changed if u want waves. then make another box and tie it to func_button (or some sort of a trigger). set the target to "water" (or whtever u named it). thts about it, if u want the button to go into the wall change the lip to 5 or whtever suits u and then test your map to make sure it works. it should rise and then fall. u can make it rise and stay there by changing the reset attribute in func_water to -1.

You can also make the water to be flowing like a river - moving the floating boxes or vehicle/boat on the water surface. Example map: csde_canelli
the map source file is available free for download, so you can learn and recompile it. http://www.geocities.ws/cmg_lee/cs.htm
