cannot see all ( saved ) sim files ..

[zarti]

hello everyone ,

 

i have simulated and stored 350 .sim files ( ~450 Mb each )

 

when i switch the DOP network in sim-play-mode , only first 200 frames are displayed . not any other beyond that .

 

- can someone suggest to me how to deal with this ?

 

 

thanks in advance !

 

.cheers

Did you try saving "name.$F3.bgeo" and test load using "file sop"  

 

also you may try loading those .sim files using "file SOP" (To check the simulation)

thank you very much , Sankar Kumar !

 

esp. thank you for posting on weekend , while mine wasnt such =) .. and so thats why i only could now "thank you" ..

 

 

now back into ` technical ` aspect :

 

the File_SOP gave me exactly what i wanted; it could read the .sim file format and i didnt knew that ( at least filetype filters of File_SOP `told me so` ) .

 

before calculating the simulation i set the timeStep to ~0.3 .

 

i wasnt sure how long the seq would be needed for me and also thought wd be better to have a 3xfinner calculated version .

 

the problem i had was that while DOP_net was in playback mode it played a lot faster than 1/3rd .

 

the File_SOP played it immediately the full sim as i expected .

 

maybe thats explained in Hou_Docs ..

 

but my rush , lack of exp. and the high-rate-compresion-of-knowledge of Hou_Docus have had for me in past ..

 

make me Appreciate tremendously the value of houdini community .

 

the bolded section in line above and this small suggestion below :

 

- to add an playback_speed control on DOP_net while thats in playsim mode ( since data is there )

 

.. Go to SESI !
