I thought that it could have a slight shimmer with a highly angled light, but I will run some more tests. I purposely chose not to include normal textures since this seemed to result in a more pleasant effect when doing so. I can make a new effect that is a darker hue of blue and also make a version that includes additional textures that would allow for more light reflection, to see if that works better for the scene that you have in mind. This effect runs on a script with 125 settings, takes some time.
Please let me know how the update with the new version 3 works out. I included a demo scene to show the glare off of the water. I am hesitant to make the glare/shininess at a higher level, since doing so comes at a cost of making the water dark and it will eventually get black spots that doesn't look convincing.
Promises are meant to be broken.
Honestly, I apologize for such frequent updates, but I have made good progress on building new waves. This update adds a new set 4, deep blue ocean. I am also adding a couple of land mass assets for scene building, as well as a new Ocean Demo 3 scene. I wish you smooth sailing!

I am sorry about your disappointment. I do the best that I can, but I know that I have my shortcomings. There are versions that do somewhat like what you are stating. In one of the older versions of Farger Particle Pack Vol 2, there is an ocean that is somewhat convincing when viewed under water, that effect was used in a bubble demo scenes, and I have used effects like that for the Great Whale, Mellow Submarine, etc It is challenging to provide things that people desire when Vam 1.X is stuck to a very dated version of Unity. It not like creators like me are not trying, but one needs to understand the limitations of what is available in an old version of Unity. Maybe one day though, myself or another creator will find a way.
and still updated .
Yes, each type of approach has pros and cons. The shader that I selected for this resource is good at motion effects with foam and caustics. Other shaders might do better in more of a glass and shiny effect aspect. I did make some changes on set 3 and 4 of this set based upon the ask from CuddleMocap, and it can shine more than the first two versions, but there is so much that I can do with this shader before the glimmering aspects starts negatively impacting the overall results.No need Mate to apologize for frequent updates, we all like to make improvements and there will always be something that needs fixing.
how many times iv'e said last update
i agree with CuddleMocap the water that has sun shine on it is missing the glimmer effect , like the water i did for the beach
the other water surfaces look fine that don't need a bright sun .
suppose depends on the type of water shader used . i used SilentWater.
your right it is frustrating being stuck on a old unity dinosaur , and does limit what we can achieve
