Hi there Morten,

Have you tried colour correction with the XSI fractals/clouds  so that you
have more emphasised peaks?

Subject: Procedurals in XSI for creating waves?


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!


Best Regards
