See the video for an overview. 27 | 28 | ##Settings 29 | The _CT Wave Effector_ object has a number of settings in the _User Data_ tab. 30 | 31 | * Twist Amount 32 | * Controls the size of the waves 33 | * Width 34 | * The distance from the effector at which points are still influenced by the deformation. Combine with *Twist Amount* to control the size of the waves. 35 | * Falloff 36 | * The way the distance from the effector affects the deformation of the points. Used to create a smooth transition between wave and "calm" sea 37 | * Texture 38 | * A grayscale 2D texture applied to the wave, influencing the *Twist Amount*. 39 | * Texture Offset 40 | * A positional offset of the *Texture*. Animate to create a sense of motion in the wave. 41 | * Bend 42 | * Bends the wave around the Axis Center of the deformed object. Can be used to create splashes or boat wakes. 43 | 44 | ##Inspiration 45 | This script was inspired by, and backwards-enginered from, the wave tool in [this video](https://vimeo.com/4697942). 46 | 47 | ##CG News 48 | Visit the Creative Tools blog for your daily dose of CG news. 49 | ###[English](http://translate.google.com/translate?js=n&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http://www.creativetools.se/blog/) 50 | ###[Swedish](http://www.creativetools.se/blog/) 51 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /ct-ocean-wave.c4d: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CreativeTools/ct-ocean-waves/26d71ea19df1aff6563e406ee8858a4c784824d1/ct-ocean-wave.c4d -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /screenshot.png: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CreativeTools/ct-ocean-waves/26d71ea19df1aff6563e406ee8858a4c784824d1/screenshot.png --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
