How to control water ripples

I am facing a problem with Water Ripples. I am using GRID+ Wave with different options. In the general it is working alright, but when some duck is going on the water surface, I am not able to control the ripples. Can any one please help me for doing that?

Klopes wrote a script to do that called olikas.py (or .blend) but it’s old. If you can’t find it I’ll post it.
