Help on creating grayscale water foam in substance designer
polycounter lvl 10
Hi, I've been trying to create some water foam in Substance Designer but it's proving quite tricky to get the results I want and I was wondering if anyone had any advice. I've found a few tutorials but they're not exactly what I'm looking for and some are incomplete sadly.
I have 8 different alpha textures that we're currently using for water foam (bit of a WIP right now):
I created these in a mix of Filter Forge and Photoshop. What we really want to do though is create animated frames for each level of these images that loops. I found in FilterForge you can change the seed, but the problem with that is the seed is random so there's no way to lerp between two seeds for a smooth animation.
So I thought I'd try in Designer as I can presumably slide up the Disorder to animate these frames (?), but its a bit beyond my knowledge right now to get anything like the patterns you see above. I was wondering if anyone has any tips to get a look like this, or if you could point me in the right direction of any tutorials I may have missed (I've been looking a lot)
I've tried cells warped with noise and inverted, tile generators of shapes, etc etc.
