Some guy wrote a mod for oblivion with a shader that does that.

Writing a "wet" shader isn't terribly hard- it'd just be a clear texture where you'd just do some normalmapped highlights and reflection, and keep it nearly transparent. Problem is that it'd probably look like poo, unless the objects were given a new projection. And it would involve drawing the Unit geometry all over again, which could get rather expensive, for such a minor effect.

An easier thing to do, by far, would be to show "drips" off the Pieces as a Unit emerged from water. I'll look at that, when I'm done with the stuff I'm working on, if I remember to.

But Bumpmapping isn't a idear? Maby it could be cool for the map,unit and features.

Since its textured and heightmapped, it looks decent; plus its a really tiny map.
