Gradient map (like the default 3ds)

I want to create animated gradient maps with octane with fractal and turbulence (same as how 3ds default) to simulate something burning away for use in my compositing package. It seems to me there is nothing within the Octane maps to accomplish this? I have been having to do this with mental ray separately. In short, a linear white gradient wipe from A to B with animated fractals on the edge to simulate burning.
Thanks!

could you kindly share a reference about this?

Add octane greyscale image map and where it says standard map slot add default 3ds max gradient.

Thanks Coilbook...lol I have been wanting to use std maps for quite a while and now always overlooked that slot!
... is there any drawback to using it in terms of rendering speed?

No It works great and fast . I found out about it recently too. I am hoping soon we can use all vray maps the same way
