  Cant get the Point Cache Tag to enable

  Posted by Jason Stirret on May 26, 2011 at 10:57 am

  Just as the title I cant seem to get the point cache tag to enable. I want to catch my frames so that I can use the scale function. However I cant for the life of me figure out what I need to change. I do have a dynamics body tag and I can cache and bake with no problem when I drop a point cache tag, just wont work (screen shot) can use the mograph cache tag but it doesn’t have scale. Any suggestions?

  I believe you have to make the sphere editable to use the point cache tag.

  I would have to remove the child objects and apply the dynamics tags individually as it would not let me make the entire tree editable (I tried!) This is doable but will I have to add the point cache tag to each of the children thereafter? or is there a quicker method?

  Thanks for the reply by the way (you rule my friend…you rule!)

  You can pointcache primitives with the Correction Deformer (You point cache the deformer).
