This approach uses two materials. First, a “RealFlow Mesh Importer” plugin is required where the sequence can be loaded. The vertex maps are generated automatically when you start scrubbing the timeline. With MD files you have the greatest choice, assuming that you have exported the appropriate channels with your mesh.

Look for the channel you have used in the white material, e.g. “Age”
Increase or decrease the channel's “Scale” parameter to change the ratio between blue and white areas until you get the desired result.
