What is entered in the text of the driver?

Hi lliya. Where do I find that information for you on my Mac-Pro Computer for you?

I'm talking about the driver text in that pink box. If there is nothing there, then I will close this report.

Hi, thank you for the feedback. It’s a formula #frame/35

I believed it’s a issue with Ocean effects. If you are on Mac or PC. I believe it’s a issue where the flat plane needed to be Baked. After doing more research on line about ocean effectors. Theirs a issue that the baking is not done automatically. I had to go to the Object menu, Assets, Bake: It worked. The Ocean effects finally worked. No, clue I had to do that manually because of the ocean effects will not do that automatically “bake” to allow the ocean effects to work on a flat plane. You can close out the ticket. I figured it out. Sorry for the posting of the issue.

I see 0 as the result of 185/35. So I can't figure out what's going on. The sample file will really help.

Hi lliya, attached Blend File. Also, I found in the screen shot to fix the problem. But, I have to rebuild it because that option doesn't work when things are ready created in Ocean effector.

I understand. Thanks for the example file. Report can be closed:
Regular you use # for insert driver in field. But in driver script you shouldn't use it.

This not bug.
