how to animate displace modifier?

I´ve made some nice water with a displace modifier and a cloud texture but, How can I animate the displace modifier to make the waves move?
I’ve tried to amimate the offset of the texture but it doesn’t work on the modifier
thanks

  1. In the DisplacementModifier select as Texture coordinate -Object-.

  2. Add an Empty (or a Cube for better control of your texturesize) near your Watersurface and type the name of that Empty in the Textfield of the Modifier.

  3. Then animate the Empty.

  4. If you use the Texture in your WaterMaterial as well, you could set the Map Input to Object too.
