Holy crap, it works! I’ve spent an embarrassingly long time trying to figure this one out. Thanks a lot Brian…

You’ve made this so simple and I can’t get it to work. I’m starting to think that there’s a bug in my C4d copy. I’ve rebaked and replayed and the balloons are not moving. Do I need to be working with the separate timeline window or just the main timeline on the bottom of the interface? (I haven’t worked with the separate window and don’t know the purpose of it yet).

Here is freshly baked file with the correct tag: https://www.dropbox.com/s/sqa61p6dtqy3186/Balloon%20Tut%20w6.c4d

I really appreciate the help in figuring out what I’m doing wrong here…

Thanks for having a look Brian. I hope what I’m trying to do is accomplishable.

I was looking forward to trying this approach this morning but after many attempts it’s not working. I apply the mograph cache tag, play the dynamics out, pause, bake through the tag and then try to replay the animation but it’s taken away all the dynamics completely now and they just sit there not changing through the sequence. Very frustrating, I really want to figure this out.

Here are some screen grabs:
