jont Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Hi, I have a simple simulation that I want to bring in to sop level and copy to multiple instances. But I want the start of each instance to be off set by 5 frames from the previous instance. The sim is cached, I use dopimport to bring it to sop level and then apply a copy sop. I need the copies to appear, one after the other, alone the points of a curve, and this is where i get stuck. Any help? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emanuele Berti Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 (edited) Hi, you could attach a timeshift SOP between your dopimport SOP and the copy SOP, then in the copy SOP create a 'stamp input' called 'pt' => $PT and in the timeshift SOP frame parameter write something like this: $F-5*stamp('../copy1','pt',0) Cheers, Emanuele Edited October 29, 2010 by Emanuele Berti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
