Hi, can I jump in here? I had to animate a flag once, using the waves utility on a flat sheet witl plenty of faces. This gave me the wavy surface. Then I took each object and tapered it so that one edge was straight and statinary. This gave me an anchor for the flagpole. The only problem I had was that the waves were very regular, not more random as they'd be in real life.
