Slow fields..Unable to see the effect
Refraction effects continuing after you turn the graphics down sounds broken, and should be bugged if you can repeat it.
Actually the reverse of what you said, the refraction effects stop working if i log out of the game and back in but it only seems be the slow fields ( they have a metallic like reflection) normal water in the world seems fine
If your graphics are set too low you will not see the slow fields.
When you adjusted you settings back down, did the game redrawn the base? If it did not that's why you were still seeing the fields.

That seemed to fix it.. it seems they like Medium Quality water reflections not low quality.
So using some of the wonderful tips i have found here i made a pool how ever when I put the slow field down I could not see the effect. I checked my graphic settings the water was set to low quality I moved the slider the effects appeared I moved the slider back to low the effects persisted... I logged out logged back in the effects were gone!
Any Idea what the cause of this is? or is it broken?
