Is that map to scale....?

If it is it needs A LOT more than a few hills..

Edit: Also needs a good skybox

Dude, again, model maps by HAND, instead using those displacement maps, don't you understand that?!

Actually, a lot of Quake 3 maps are based on heightmap data. Even the early ZEQ2 maps were. Nothing wrong with the approach in itself, but you will get more fine-tuned results from using a box-modeling or similar approach.

I know, Zeth, but his displaced mesh seems to be way too low poly plus he probably used a low res heightmap. Of course, height mapping approach is a good one, but it still requires some tech knowledge and understandment of 3D workflow.

Wow, that's really high poly, especially for a terrain like that. I recommend you find a new method to create your maps, because that has a stuff ton of wasted polies. Also, you don't add water like that, you just created a water plane, added a solid color to it and applied some settings to the color to make it look pretty in the render.

Maybe it's due to effects that are coded in and due to sprites and stuff? Still man, you'd better ask more before you do the stuff on your own. I'm sorry to say this but you need much more knowledge before you can talk so freely.

You're doing a great job on the map 123, keep it up.

Before displacing the terrain, make sure your base shape isn't quite so tessellated (use less length/width segments). Roughly you don't want your map running over 30-60K total if you want fair performance.

As long as your water entity (I recommend using a large box for this and NOT a plane) is set properly, the splash effects from the game will automatically take place.

To do the underwater stuff, just import and place various objects under the water. You won't be able to do a heightmap/displacement map approach for anything really but the base terrain itself.
