Hi I try to simulate waves with animated displacement maps bump maps and reflection node to finish my P5 Universe project.. What I got? yes nice dynamic waves in animations but one problem.. when using bump maps together with displacement maps and reflection node the "water" start to be transparent.. I tested with ground and sguares and nothing help.. or you have to use bump or only displacement maps other no way to use them together.. this is well important because using displacement maps the waves get a real effect more that only with bump maps.. after 2 weeks I am up..

the image above was done using only animated bump maps with reflection node if I plug the displacement maps the water don't reflect the temple props.. well the sky and the ground and everything what is bellow the scene was visible..
also sometimes when you use displacement maps on the props or figures the reflection don't works right, they just reflect in a wrong way the displacement maps.. Cath
