The wave deformer (used wrong name initially) is in item on your "object" menu bar. (Object/Spawn Wave) The best (only??) tutorial I've found is on the poseworks site: http://poseworks.8m.com/. Go to the tutorial section; the tutorial is called "making waves". There's also a good tutorial on creating texture maps. If you figure out how to make little ripples instead of smooth, gradual waves, let me know please :) GrayMare
