lisux Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Hi all. I was wondering what is the best owrkflow to cache the SDFs use by the Source Apply. There is a file option where you can seave these SDFs as .sim files. These sem file seems to have more indo than a SDF and at least are in a different format than simple bgeos. So it looks that the only way to generate them is running the sim and leave DOPs create the file, because DOPs doesnt understand begoes just its sim file. But I think will be much better to create them in SOPs land and then point to your bgeos cache from DOPs. Is it possible? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macha Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 (edited) Save as bgeo either on sop level or in dops (collision only), both work just fine if I remember well, I do it occasionally. I don't know what the benefit of simdata for sdf is. Edited March 23, 2011 by Macha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
