This video is intended to show the basic technique. I did not sculpt a magnificent perfect beach, just showing the principal of how it's done. Some really cool things can be done with it other than beaches as well

I don't understand what I just saw...did you place multiple water body objects?

Yes. Make sure you're well clear of the base water table. What will show through the water is what is between the lowest water body, and the highest.
In the video when you start to see more of the underwater rough, all I am doing is lowering the water and replacing it

I wonder if VctryLnSprts would be offended if I put goats under there

Yep, this lovely little "trick" has been around since early TGC2 and is very handy indeed. It also works with every texture too . How do you think I got the water edges etc looking so nice and neat on The Belfry ? On The Belfry I used this method (in tandem with a couple of other "tricks") for every piece of water across the entire course. It was also the reason why I was able to get the green texture to go right up to the retaining wall on the 10th hole. (the jaggedness along that edge of the green was down to me trying to keep the slope of the green as accurate as possible to the real thing and nothing to do with using this method btw)

Cat has given me an idea for my next links course.

I knew this wasn't a groundbreaking new tech. It can be seen on many courses, subtle or not. From the kraken to the new magnolia.
But people have come in here and asked and not got an answer.

I didn't mean to imply that you were taking credit unduly, but Jacob deserves the credit for discovering and sharing this technique.
Thanks for posting the video. It is definitely helpful.

How do you do this at the edges of the plot that transition into the plot water?

How do you do this at the edges of the plot that transition into the plot water? What I did in the pic above was start with a blank plot of only water. Then i covered the hole map with an elevated waterbody to set my new water table. Next, sculpt your plot however you see fit, planning is everything. And finally, go around your new coastline placing water bodies below your created water table. I don't know if it's the best way but is a way.
