Hi,
I am wondering if it is possible to use Forest Pack on a surface that has it's verts animated either via a deformer or on an animated imported geo cache, ie a ground surface animated by a wave-deformer to simulate a stylized earthquake shockwave.
I tried briefly but didnt get very far, since the scattered instances did not stick to the surface when it deformed during the animation.
Cheers!

Hi,
That's possible and it'll depend a lot on how the deformation will look like. For some scenarios (where the UV space is significantly deformed in time) would be recommendable to use a workaround is to use "help" surfaces" as explained in following "Scattering on animated surface (http://forum.itoosoft.com/index.php?topic=2782.0)" thread. Hope you'll find it useful.
Best regards,
