hello all,

i have been using ncloth some, and i what i was doing if had a simulation that was say for example 200 frames, and the first 150 frames were good, i would do the following -

(i would have the simulation cached out btw already)

i would change some settings, choose append to cache at frame 150, and maya would start simulating again at frame 150 and save the new 150-200 to the cache.

what is happening right now is that when i try to append to cache, it is almost like the cloth gets turned off and nothing happens. the geometry is frozen, and maya saves this as the new simulation. is this just a problem that is unique for me? or has it happened to anybody else?

thanks

Hello,
I am not quite sure if I understood what issue is meant by this.
But "Append to cache" is causing some problem for me too. The simulation isnt reproducing the same result from append-startframe onwards as if I would simulate from the start.
Any comments on this?
Thanks, ndo.
