waveDeformer

Hello,

Here is a wip of a wave deformer that i am working on my free time for pleasure and for learn houdini.

Actually this wave deformer can setup different thing:

- wave curl

- wave dip

- get back attribute for shading: concave&convex, up&down, intensity

- adding some noise (Up and Down)

- local subdivision

- restitution for shading displacement/texturing

The wave is controlled by a null (Guide Geometry).

I've use essentially the vopsop node and no spline warp deformation, wave deformation is done by matrix rotation.

I am completely new to houdini, so any tips and critics are welcomed.

Hope you like it.

hello,

i've added some new thing:

- attribute creation "foam" based on concave and convex information always in vopsop:

I've also done some early test by using oceanFX (h12.5) before the wave deformer, below the result:

Thanks all for you comments:

Here a quick animation test, for sure it's not perfect at all, i need to work more on this deformer :

@Sly : For the foam i uses simple combined noise inside a vopsop with the concave and convex value of the wave

@Farsheed Ashouri : I will share the hip file when the deformer will be finish

@ikarus : It's a good idea, i will make some test to implement this kind of stuff

really nice wave deformer, I was just wondering how rotate only upwards and no downwards which is unrealistic? And also you don.t have control over the accurate height of the wave.
