WaveForce vs. PhoenxFDOceanTex-Playback Mode: Direct Time

[3dwolf]

Bug?
WaveForce seems not to work as one would expect if PhoenxFDOceanTex ist set to "Direct Time".

Hmmm, good one! I don't think this would work right now, but will see how to make it happen.

Are you using Massive Wave Force, or the old one?

Roughly following the TunnelWave-Demo I used the Massive Wave Force.
4.30.01 Nightly, Build ID: 2021011130530
Right, if i disable the MWF something starts to happen.

Hmmm, seems to be working okay with a simple setup here where I made the ocean texture produce long unidirectional waves, and then animated the frame index to start with a regular play speed and then gradually freeze.

Can you grab a latest nightly and try it out? Or can you send over your setup?

Thanks!

Here you are. 3dsmax2021
Just switching from Direct to Linear makes a huge difference here.
Propably I missed something obvious or made some basic mistakes.

Edit: Actually I was not after rolling waves but more of a stormy ocean with huge random waves which throw a ship around and create splashes and such stuff at the hull.

Hey, thank you! We reproduced it here, found out what's wrong and it will be fixed in tomorrow's nightlies

Thanks once again!
