C4d: convert animated bulge deformer to keyframes


#1

I animated a jellyfish’s body by adding a linear field/ falloff to a bulge deformer and adding a curve in the remapping tab and selecting a value for the ‘spline animation speed’ parameter. Animation can be viewed here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/11mqTULiVSQXYV-iykIIKLvbxQC3LaIJj/view?usp=sharing

This is based on this tutorial by Daniel Danielsson : https://youtu.be/11JwBQkzySE ( 5:23 - 6:37).

I have duplicated the jellyfish and would like to stagger/ offset the animation on each one so they don’t move exactly the same at the same time.

Is there a way to convert this animation to keyframes? Or another way to stagger the animation?

I have been googling for hours and haven’t found a solution yet.

Any help would really be appreciated!
