hi

i have a nice scene which i wanna flood now.
so i need a nice water effect on it. but i dont like the standard ripples, 
so i wondered if there is anything like that out there.

probably with a lot of intense waves...

There are no include files for this that I know of. Water is one of the
hardest things to model and depends a lot on the lighting, the setting
it is in, camera angle etc. You might play around with height fields
or perhaps with isosurfaces in POV-Ray v3.5 but don't expect it to be
easy.
