Hi,

So I have a question that I think my shot benefit greatly. So I have this enormous river I need to make, which I plan not to do with flip.

But It makes S shapes etc, it has a visible flow to it, so obviously ocean is a good start for this, but I need to find a way to comb the wave direction.

So initially I tought, I am just going to make a vector volume field and use that some how in ocean spectrum to override the direction or whatever i can make sense of.


In spectrum node there is a calc_amplitude vop which has winddir attribute which converts into a vector2 field with x and z.
So I am trying to figure out, how can I manipulate this to inject my own path for waves……

anyone??

thanks
tim
