Water Walking Boots
Version 0.3.11 for How to Fish / BepInEx 5
Water Walking Boots let you walk, run, and jump across the ocean surface as if it were solid ground. They are a reusable item with a custom low-poly model, a clean hotbar icon, and a simple ON/OFF control.
Buy the boots, place them in your hotbar, hold them in your hands, and press E to turn water walking on. A green indicator shows when the effect is active. The boots support only the player wearing them, so you can stand in boats and move near loose items without pushing or launching them.

How water walking works
When switched on, the boots create a small invisible walking surface directly beneath the wearer's feet at the waterline. It follows the player closely enough for normal movement, sprinting, and jumping while leaving boats, dropped objects, held items, NPCs, and other players unaffected.
The effect works near the water surface and turns off when you press E again while holding the boots. It does not change normal movement while you are travelling on land.
Item features
- Custom dark-blue and cyan low-poly boots model with straps and gold buckles.
- Matching model while held or dropped in the world.
- Transparent, tightly framed hotbar preview.
- Green hotbar indicator while water walking is active.
- Normal item dropping, pickup, inventory, and vendor-sale behavior.
- Safe movement around boats and loose objects.
- Compatible renderer setup for Better Oceans.
Multiplayer
Each player who wants to use the boots should install the mod. The water support applies locally to the wearer and does not act as a moving platform for other players or world objects.
