Ocean waves Sim

Hi guys, I been trying to simulate ocean waves and splashes for the past few weeks and been facing some problems.

Problems Faced

1. Somehow I could not make motion blur to work correctly on the whitecaps splashes. In the close up, it really looks bad without the motion blurred.

2. If used the sprites shader, the motion blur do show up but because sprite shader cause every particles to show up, it does not look realistic. Therefore, I used the foam shader.

3. I'm wondering if there is a bug on the whitecaps tool. When first applied, the whitecaps appear on the peak of the waves, but upon saving the scene file, whitecaps appear all over

waves.

This is the look which I am aiming for.
