I’ve been trying to work out the waves tut written by Caronte, but the translation from spanish seems to be a little lacking.
I’ve sub-divided my plane quite a few times resizing and selecting the middle 4 vertices each time for sub-dividing. Next I added a material and added a stucci texture, then tinkered with it to get a nice wavy water look. Then I went to my animation buttons and with the plane selected added a wave effect. Then I animated it for 50 frames changing the settings of the wave but the best I could get was moving flicker over the surface. Does anyone know how to get the wave effect to work on the plane or is there a better tutorial on animating waves?
I am trying to make a looping wave animation for a website so this might not be the best way to go about it and ideas would be appreciated! Thnx.
