Spent a good chunk of lock-down doing this important work. Boozy liquid shader, now available in the latest update for Half-Life: Alyx

I did something similar to this for the caustics in the CS2 water, cheap and effective chromatic aberration

Easy chromatic aberration hack: col.rgb += dFdx(col.rgb)*vec3(3,0,-3);

I wish I could take credit for this clever shader effect! It wasn't me though, but one of our amazing and talented developers (who wants to remain anonymous) 👀

New eyes for agents @CounterStrike will not affect your FPS at all. It works 100% through "smart materials" aka shaders and morph shapes. They don't even have physical eyeballs. It's a fake effect similar to how the liquid shader works on bottles in Source 2.
