Hey,


I am working through tutorials but always when i try to use the rop geo + file node. It will only show me the end state of the animation.
I tried a lot of options but nothing seems to change it.
Someone may know a solution to this?

I tested it more and its only writing the last frame. And i am not getting why he does that.
I am using Windows 10.

You are overwritting the file.
It should be C$F.bgeo instead C1.bgeo

Yea as the poster said above your missing your frame variable, so you wanna put in. “render_layer_name.$F.bgeo”

If you make it $F2 or $F3 or $F4 you will increase the padding. Hence, with $F4 youd get :

"render_layer_name.0001.bgeo


etc.


I sometimes use ROP's with $OS.$F4.bgeo which will reference the name of the actual operator ( in this case whatever you name your ROP output) into the filename.

Cheers!
