Hi- I have a question.

I noticed in a beach scene reciently that they had foam/chop/turbulance where the water met the beach. I need to do that to have a way more realistic picture.

How did they do that?

Vue 7 btw

Thanks;
Ken

They most certainly only loaded a water plane and rendered. And used at least Vue7 for this. The process is automatic. When you load a water plane, it's automatically given a "metawater" material where foam is created when the water meets a terrain. Double clicking the water plane in the world browser brings up the water editor, where you can fine tune the effect, and turn your water plane into an infinite terrain with animated waves and foam.
