FWIW, I've created fairly realistic underwater effects as if a propeller is
passing through the water by using Yost's IPAS Spurt.axp in combination with
Digimation's Bubble.axp. For general underwater atmosphere, use combinations of
Yost's Water.sxp, Projector Lights with bitmap of water caustics, Fog, Blur,
and Snow.axp. Make sure to provide a backlight for the bubbles for better
effect. You might also put a animated map of water (or Water.sxp) on a
translucent plane placed directly in front of the camera, and look through it
for more turbulent atmosphere.
Hope this helps.
