Ocean surface color different

[wensk]

Hi, after simulate the ocean, use vray 5 to render the sea, the sea surface color is differnet between simulate area and other area, how to solve this?
The Initial fill up and ocean level is 50, ocean subdivs is 8. Simulated area is darker than other area.
Thanks.

Hey,

This happens because the grid container has one poly per voxel, while the ocean extension has one poly per pixel when you use Ocean Subdivs = 1.
This is why in the distance the container polys start getting very small related to the pixel size and create this darker, more abrasive look compared to the ocean surface.

Generally increasing the ocean subdivs is the way to go, but this increases the RAM consumption by a lot - so if you have some memory to spare you can try that.
Another thing that could help is to move your camera a bit higher or reduce the grid resolution a bit.
