Using sea foam
|

|
In this second part, you'll see how you can apply the sea foam material in your scenes.
Create a new scene
in Vue and choose any atmosphere you want. Create a terrain
and
place it in front of the main camera. Double click the terrain in the 'Main camera view' to load the 'Material Editor'.
Drag
the 'Clip' 
to the right to remove the black background. Press OK.
Right click the terrain and select 'Copy', then right click again and
select 'Paste'.
In the 'World Browser', rename the second terrain you just created to 'Foam'.
Apply the sea foam material to 'Foam'. Make the 'Foam' a bit bigger than the first terrain. Double click the 'Foam' to open the 'Terrain Editor' and gently 'dig' the center of the terrain. See the picture below.
Using
the 'Numerics' tab 
in the 'Object properties' window, refine the position of the 'Foam'.
Apply,
for instance, the 'Chipped' material to the 'Terrain'.
Load a suitable
atmosphere and try to render.
Using this technique, you can quickly achieve nice results.
Alternatively,
in some areas of your scene you can use the primitives.
Apply the sea
foam material to the cylinder, for instance, and you will have a piece
of sea foam anywhere you want.
Back to the first part.
