Bake Jiggle deformation
Hey!
So, I’ve got a platonic that has a random scaling with Jiggle. It looks great, now I want to clone it. I tried a Point Cache, which makes the distortion permanent, but when i clone and use a Shader Effector and offset the time, the animation does not shift. It is as if the point cache ignores the time shifting. If I don’t point cache, and just leave the Jiggle, no distortion comes through the cloner at all.Suggestions?
R14, btw. Thanks! -

You can bake the jiggle deformer to point-level animation (PLA) by selecting the object that’s being jiggled in the Timeline and running the Functions>Bake command with PLA enabled. Then the offset should work.

That did the trick, thank you so much!

Trying the same thing, but I must be missing something.
When I bake the object (select object – -function – bake – check pla), it just creates a copy of the object with the same jiggle deformer. When I disable the jiggle on the new object, there is no pla.
Below is a sceencap of what I’m doing.

Thanks in advance!

first guess: it looks like the torus is a procedural object. try making it a polygon first by making it editable. then apply your dynamics and bake process.
