I am working on creating ocean surfaces and for this particular thing I would
prefer to use procedurals in XSI for displacement. Trouble is it seems a bit
hard to get a good wave shape with the included procedurals. I have had good
succes with Combustion Turbulence and wonder if anyone here know how to get
that from the Rendertree?
See comparison here:

The Combustion Turbulence creates nice ridges for wavewcrests as seen to the
far left, and I seem to be unable to even get close with Fractals or Cloud
nodes.
Any suggestions?
TIA!
