nicoladanese Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 hey! I'm simming a flip fluid sim and I'm writing out substeps to disk in order to do a slow mo effect. At the moment I'm having something like this for 4 substeps testretime.125.25.bgeo.sc testretime.125.5.bgeo.sc testretime.125.75.bgeo.sc testretime.125.bgeo.sc testretime.126.25.bgeo.sc testretime.126.5.bgeo.sc testretime.126.75.bgeo.sc testretime.126.bgeo.sc testretime.127.25.bgeo.sc testretime.127.5.bgeo.sc testretime.127.75.bgeo.sc testretime.127.bgeo.sc how can I read this info back and render it in mantra so that 125.25 becomes 126, 125.5 becomes 127 and so on? should I rename those frame by hand? or there's something smarter?

3dome Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 not sure but timewarp might do that. quadruple the endframe of the input range for the output end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicoladanese Posted April 18, 2018 Author Share Posted April 18, 2018 hey! just tried but it keeps the same frame for 4 frames and then move to the next one, I think he's looking for integer frame, while mine are 125.25 etc... maybe I can cache them out in another syntax, without using $FF so the files will output already in a nice way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neokovago Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 i've done something like this. before your cache node just drop a timeshift and divide time by your substeps ($F/4). then after your cache another timeshift and you can animate it as you want. also take a look at this tutorial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3dome Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 change your timeline to 4 times as long (because 4 substeps). then use timeshift after cache and put in $F/4.0 and untick Integer Frames Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
