HOM effect, it happened because you're using the wrong theater.  Water only 
works (as far as I experienced) in Winter and Desert theater.  However, those 
rivers that work on Winter theater will not work on desert- Desert theater has 
its own river name, hence water also.

to get your map working, you need to stick your new map into the mission that 
you want to play.  This was Andrew's error in his documentation on the 
original release of cc-scen, however he updated the documentation.  Just read 
his new docs or download it from his homepage.
