good method for foam on oceantex displaced ocean ?

[anthonyh]

hi,
as per the title, is there a good method for faking foam on a displaced oceantex ocean ? i`m not sure how you limit it to the crest of the waves or makr it look like it`s being generated by the waves (even though it isn`t). i tried distance blend but can`t get anything from that. best i have is an animated noise mask to make patches of white but it`s a bit random and doesn`t look like it really belongs there.
i need to fly over a large ocean and doing a proper sim would take forever.

thanks

Hello,

You can use the FoamTexture for this. Take a look at this thread http://forums.chaosgroup.com/showthr...e-of-questions
