  • Looping cloth doesn’t work right

    Posted by Jenni Pasanen on June 6, 2017 at 8:14 am

    Hello

    I tried to make looping cloth with the eyedesyns tutorial where loop is made with Pose Morph:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4n0TPcPd5E.

    It worked till I rendered the animation, render result does not have loop in it at all. I went back to file and noticed when animation is playing loop works, but when I stop animation in morphing stage loop disappears.

    Does anyone have solution for this? Animation deadline is today ☹

    Here’s ref pictures how morph disappears:

    does the fps of the project match the render fps? Otherwise you’d have to post the file…

    Hi

    I’m not sure about that, i tried to change values but nothing really changed even I did so, last 30 frame are the ones that do not render.
    Here’s the file (WeTransfer download link):

    only 271 frames render since it’s going from 30 to 300. The looping is fixed if the Priority of the Pose Morph tag is set to Generators 499 (I don’t know the minimum setting but Generators 0 doesn’t work) because it’s in a Subdivision Surface (and the Cloth Surface) it’s priority has to be higher so it gets calculated after them… hmm works at Generators 401 too and that’s one over Dynamics (Priority – Generators 400)

    Hi!

    My gash, thank you so much! Render works perfectly now!
    I didn’t know about the priorities and how they work, but now I do (after tweaking stuff around for a while), self learning leaves sometimes some major knowledge gaps unfilled.
    And the help got just in time few hours left till I have to send out the file :)!!

    Regards
