Are there any plugins/lscripts available which can distort a plane in modeller into a wave/sea pattern.

The plane must be deformed in modeller.

FREE plugins/lscripts would be preferable but if you can only think of a commercial tool then please still post.

Thnx for your help folks.

You can't just displacemap the plane in Layout and "Save TransFormed Object as"?
Just curious.

If you really very much, for some reason, very MUST do it in modeler without layout involved, there is a plug called texturescape... (handy when you need to make a landscape really quick)

http://amber.rc.arizona.edu/lw/texturescape.html

with it you create planes of triangular pollys distorted/deformed with whatever texture you prefer (procedurals as well). You can use crumple or something to make it "oceany".

Itīs free

Thnx for the speedy replies.

I don't think I wrote my initial post to well, apologies.

wgreenlee1: Why didn't I think of that. I've never even noticed that option before. Thnx.

Chagidiel: I only needed the displacement saved to the object for use in modeller. Thnx for the plugin link will have a look momentarily.

Facial Deluxe: Thnx for the link and the little tut ;) .

Cheers guys I'm sure one of these will get me the results I'm after.
