Hey toonafish, that is a compromise I had to make.
The RigPose state that lattice_B uses does not support this kind of rotation.
Sry.

how to change my projects rute to $HIP? Nov. 28, 2025, 9:13 a.m.

$HIP is the variable for the folder where your scene file is located.
So if your scene file is here:

C:/MyProject/MysceneFile.hip

Your cache needs to be here:

C:/MyProject/geo/cache.bgeo.sc

Now you can use:

$HIP/geo/cache.bgeo.sc

And now the cache can be found on another system, too.
As long as the scene file and cache keep this relation.

Can I use Polydraw/Edit back to back? Nov. 28, 2025, 1:53 a.m.

Hm, I don't quite understand.
Topobuild has various modes, including draw, move, and smooth.
Shouldn`t this be enough to do most of the work?
What function do you use in edit that you can`t do in Topobuild?
