I would like to create a scene with a ripple, like when a drop of rain hits water, but I can't seem to come up with anything all that cool, I would like to use a latice to do it, but I don't know, I would like the ripple to have troughs as well as crests, but I can't seem to have the steady hand that requires, I thought about using a boolean made up of postive and necative toruses, but that may be a last resort. There is probably an easy solution, I think I am just looking too hard. Just wondering if anyone could shed some light. P.S. the subject is the phrase that it is because I feel like Ben Stein when he played the monotone teacher in "The Wonder Years"

Why not use a package that has editable gradient fills such as pshop and use the image to create the lattice/terrain

THe map (previous post) produces this image, the map uses linear mapping between each gradient point, this should be smoothed or the gradient adjusted a bit more carefully then this demo. As is it produces this terrain.

Or you could use a water textured cube (positive) with alternating positive and negative torii on its top face. It would take some tweaking to position but should be do-able.

Pass no temptation lightly by, for one never knows when it may pass again!

you can smooth Cog's ripple easily by applying a gausian blurr of somewhere between 10 and 15 pixels. The result is quite good.

There is a good freeware plug in to do this downloadable at http://www.redfieldplugins.com/wr.htm I use it in photoshop but it is available for PSP photopaint etc.- Ken
