I want to apply a gradient like texture on an ocean plane. Without the modifier, it works perfectly as shown below.
As soon as the Ocean modifier is applied with repetition on the X and Y axis, the UV Map is neither tiled nor applied to the whole surface.
I tried Object, Generated and UV without success.
How can I fix that?
Without modifier:
With Ocean modifier:
Modifier options:
You could use UV Project modifier after the Ocean modifier to project UVs from another object:
For me with Blender 4.0 beta, Martynas solution didn't work (the UVproject modifier didn't work with the Ocean modifier). But the approach gave me an idea which was useful ^^ Thank you!
Adding an intermediary geometry is indeed the solution. With an additional plane, the UVmap of the plane is chosen as an input for the texture coordinates in the shader of the ocean. And it works like a charm.
EDIT : Martynas solution DO work in Blender 3.6 at least.
