Are you running Qt5 version of the binaries or Qt4 version of the binaries?

Do you have libpng12 installed? That water shader look is caused by OpenSceneGraph png plugin failing to be loaded. The water shader looks fine in k1ll's nightly builds and RC builds on my setup.

Could you be using a custom race? That's what was the origin for the issue in that report, the player character was a Golden Saint (a part of Westly's golden saint mod).

Seems to be related to this issue. Any mods?

Have you tested it on a RC build of 0.46.0?

Sorry, my mistake, an erroneous attempt to optimize spell success chance calculation broke spell school determination. Will fix in a bit.

For the record, this doesn't affect 0.46.0.

For the record Linux generic builds seem to work fine.

It will be available in 0.46.

Posting a reminder that OSG 3.4.2-based OSGoS should either be built (macOS) or rebuilt (Linux). Looks like future Windows builds should be fine.
