Waves / Oceans modifier, which let's you loop-animate the surface of an object with noise and waves pattern and make use of proximity objects to achieve some kind of gravity based waves.

Including ...

• Water-Shader/Material "WO Waves / Oceans Material"
• Geometry Nodes Modifier "WO Waves / Ocean Modifier"

Description / Instruction ...

Simply apply the "WO Waves / Oceans Modifier" geometry nodes modifier to your object, e.g.. a plane for water, ocean, etc. Adjust the properties for your needs:

• Generate ocean / water
• Level subdivisions, for more or less detail.
• World Offset Modification, for roating and moving the waves, if needed
• Vertex group / Weight map for noise and waves as needed
• Factor for effect normal axis.
• Set strength, scale, time, detail for surface noise-detail.
• Set strength, scale, distortion, time and detail for surface waves.
• Use (mesh) proximity aligned gravity waves
• Simply use the animation-option to loop noise and waves over a span of frames.
• Add spray particles.
• Make use of a bunch of generated output attributes in your materials or further geometry nodes modifiers, incl. Shader- and Geometry Nodes-node groups.
