Im having trouble exporting a softbody VAT, Its a tshirt out of vellum, cached, with constant topology but Its cooking for ages on "make sure the point count is consistent" and "reducing polygons", since its 1750 frames it takes ages then errors. Although a 100 frame test works for some reason.

The error out of the VAT Rop says "render position and packed normal", I've tried with packed and unpacked geometry and also deselecting the "Pack normals into Position Alpha" option, in which case the error is only "render position"

Any help is appreciated, thanks!
