Okay. First of all let me just say that Philip freakin rocks! I love his tutorials because they are very simple and easy to follow. I learn how to use techniques used in the tutorials to model or animate other things, and i just have a blast with it... Last night I created the ocean scene from the tutorials but something isnt right... I see really bright flashing which is lightening but it is too much...im not sure which map it is. I have tried adjusting everything but i cant back it off. Yall take a look at the video and tell me what ya think...

I was thinking that I could use the same null object as the ocean. Would that cause the boat to move with the waves? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
