Here is a quick image.......took longer to render than actually do it.

done in Maya 4.5 unlimited using fluids

I still think it is cool to do it the old fashion way.

Yeah, it is the built in ones. All you have to do is tweak the the attributes to get what you want. I know it kind of takes away from the whole creative thing but it's what you can do with it afterwards that is great.

But what if you want particles to be emitted where the foam is happening. That would be a little tricky because the fluid effects ocean surface is a displaced plane...
