I'm trying to copy a baked sequence to particles and I want to have the sequence start from bgeo 1 for each particle.

Separate each particle and repeat operation for each one using delete<->copy loop or delete <->foreach loop. It's a good habit to save that sequence to disk afterwords, Recalculating can be quite processor intensive and can take a while. If you have more than 1000 particles I recommend to separate them into a few chunks - otherwise cooking time will be very,very long.

hope that helps

I must be missing something. Isn't this just a simple copy stamp operation?

Just adding to Edward's example…If you want the bgeo sequence to start at 1 for each particle, you can use a stamp expression with ($AGE*$FPS)

Sorry, I didn't read carefully ops: I meant to copy each object of the sequence, on a different particle, based on group it belongs to.
