I did try the water conversion first, actually ;--) Whatever happened, my ocean lost all its shape with the ripple setting. Now that I've got another test scene set up and hybrid mode working, I'll have another go on a simple test and see what happens!
Ah! sounds like the exploding objects when subdivided! I understand now! Might work with ripple set to 0 and sub div set to zero, but yes, I've seen objects dissapear when some sort of subdivision is applied, and I gues that may be what happens if the ripple is set to greater than 0? ...oh well! `¬)
