Instancing FFX entries - Steve Green - 12-13-2008
Hi,
I was wondering if there's any way to duplicate FFX entries once they've been simulated, if for example you wanted some nice, but non-interacting smoke and didn't want a huge simulation grid - then you could offset the animation and overlap them?
Thanks,
Steve

Cant you just copy the grid and use the playback start time to change the offset?

Hi,
I could have sworn that I'd tried it and it didn't duplicate in the render - but it works just fine now.
Must be going crazy...
Cheers
Steve

I have heard of people having problems doing that too. I haven't ever had a problem though

Hello,
We've fixed a bug in FumeFX 1.2 (available inside members area) that sometimes caused identical grids that point to the same cache not to load data.
Now, this should work fine.
