I tried searching, but there are just so many threads on water problems
that I couldn't refine the search enough to find a solution. A
couple times it was brought up but no one seemed to know what to do.
Here are two shots of the problem in action:
And here's my compile log:

The only thing strange is the memorly leak bit, but I don't see how
that would effect the water in game. The problem persists even
after building cubemaps in game and restarting the server.
I have the water surface tied to an env_cubemap that is fairly high
above the water's surface. I also threw a water_lod_control in
for the heck of it. The water itself consists of 2 brushes (since
I didn't want the water brush going through the sloped part of the
pool) all textured with nodraw except the surface.
Here is a shot of it in hammer:
The thing is, I know the texture I'm using is OK, because I have water
in a different area of the map that uses the same texture with no
problems. Although, to be specific I am looking down at the water
in the two in-game shots from a higher point than is possible in the
other area of the map. But I don't see how that would make a
difference.
Does it appear to be going from good to cheap for no reason?
