Ocean Displacement in Vray 3DS Max

[Jameswhita]

Hello,

Does anyone know a good way of doing Ocean displacement in 3DS Max Vray? You used to be able to install a trail version of Phoenix which was fine for doing an ocean in a still image but not anymore it seems... For the amount that I would use Phoenix it's not really worth buying a license just for the odd static sea

In case you already have PhoenixFD installed a as trial version even if it is expired you can still use its PhoneixFDOceanTex texture.

You can still use the trial of Phoenix FD to do Ocean displacement, The vector map is no longer in the general maps tab but now has it's own Phoenix maps tab. see below.
Cheers.

Thanks guys. I've recently upgraded to 3DS Max 2018 and downloading a new trial of Phoenix is greyed out for me... I'll try emailing Chaos Group. It would be handy if this simple thing was included with VRay

We have it in the "road map" but it will take some time.
