Number of frames stored in MDD file Oct. 28, 2011, 11:31 a.m.

Hi,

I have an object hooked into an MDD point cache file. I'm looking to find out how many frames of animation that MDD file contains. With FBX point cache, I can look at the XML and find that out, but I'm stuck on how to get that info from an MDD point cache.

Any ideas? MDD is binary. Thanks!

custom attributes with point instances Oct. 4, 2011, 11:14 a.m.

Rafaels,

No need to apologize, you gave me some really useful info

I think, like you were saying, that what I'm trying to do isn't possible with true point instances. I think this general approach is very close, though… I wonder if I can channel the PT variable down instead of a custom attribute, that's what I would need. I'll continue exploring!
