"FumeFX Preferences" setting without using GUI? - studiolinda - 12-14-2016

how change "FumeFX Preferences" setting without using GUI?

example, when FumeFX simulation on the render farm, may want to change "Field3D Compression" from the default to gzip.
in this case, it is useful to be able to change the setting with the mel or python script.

Hi

That depends on which preference you want to change; in case of "Field3D Compression" you would use:

Code:
optionVar -iv ffxGlobPrefsF3Dcomp 1;
to set compression to gzip, or 0 to set it to default.
