Hey,

I am caching out my ocean simulation. Inside the dop network I went to the output node and hit save to disk. I cached out around 112 frames. Back in obj level I click on my dop network and hit playback simulation. However, it keeps loading the last frame of the simulation, even if I am on frame 1. The only way to get it to work is to turn off play back simulation, then load ONLY frame 1. Then turn play back simulation on again. After that, I can load the the rest of the cache. As I advance foward on the timeline, it updates as expected. But if I tried to load a previous frame, it won't update. For instance, it I go to frame 10 from frame 1, it updates correctly. But if I try to go back to any frame before 10, it won't update. However, it I go to frame 15, it updates fine. But now nothing before 15 will work. What is going on?

thanks

Well, I found out the problem. Apparently I have to have cache simulation turned on in the dop network node. That fixes it.

Hi Evan,
I had some similar problems. Your suggestion fixed it. But another issue causing difficulties with the playback seemed to be the SIM filenames. Got it working with simple names.
Thanks...~joel
