UV animation, ocean waves

Don’t forget to upvote and mark the answer as solved :slight_smile:

Hello guys, I’m trying to animate uv, but with different speed and direction, I’ve tried with panner but I did’t found a way to change speed and direction, I was thinking if there is a way to animate the vector parameter for its speed from 0.1 to -0.1 for example and loop it.

Here is a video that I’ve made In 3dsmax to show you what I’m looking for :

Thanks in advance

Sine is the way to go if you want to animate in a oscillating way.
Sine oscillates between -1 and 1, compensate this by multiplying sine with 0.5 and add 0.5 to the result.
Now you have a sine between 0 and 1.

Use this Value as an Alpha in a Lerp/LinearInterpolate Node.

The A and B input of the Lerp Node are your UV Coordinates. The First Input is the Start UV, the B input is the second UV (a shifted UV for example)

Thanks for the fast respond man! I think this is exactly what I was looking for. You are amazing !
