As far as the iREAL Animated Ocean Water System, can one use it to do still images with Lagoon Living or The Pool House?

    It'd be easier to use with Lagoon Living than the The Pool House but you could both if you did enough set up work and camera positioning. You could tile the ocean blocks and use it's morph capabilities to make a sort of reasonable shore line or distant ocean view or a close up very wavy ocean if the ocean was supposed to be near enough.

    Thanks very much.  I might be buying that soon.

    Oh nonesuch00! Can I add some sort of Iray Cloudy Sky.  Sorry I forget so much.  I can't believe I ever worked in video prouction with the Video Toaster.

    Yes, and there is aloso a iRay Toon Cloudy Skies too that would help. Also iRay Atmos camera that adds foggy cameras. And also there is a Rain & Fog freebie in the DAZ Store from RTDNA if DAZ hasn't removed it. I used the RTDNA Fog & Rain freebie for my Mother's Day render in my gallery from last year to give you an ideal what it does.

    That do make renders take longer though.

    A Shop search for "Iray Skies" will show over 50 possibilities. Other variations of the search will show more.

    The animated water system will look great. I do use this always when rendering ocean scenes.

    Ummm.  I didn't really see an Ocean Scene per se. I saw some under water scenes. I saw a model partially in the water, their virtual toes that is.

    Here's an example of the IREAL Ocean system used in a still image. I used a stormy sea block, and instanced it multiple times to create a whole ocean. The waves breaking over the ship were added later using Ron's brushes. Full product list in my gallery.

    Very nice and I see it also does one image.  Did you still have to have AniMate2 to use it for one frame?

    Well, I do have Animate2, so I can't say for sure, but I don't think it's necessary. Just load the block of sea and render it.
