Continue tycache after stopping - RobindM - 07-11-2019
Is it possible to continue the export from any point in the animation.
With Phoenix FD you can pickup the sim on every 15th frame (standard) and continue from there.
I have a simulation of 1500 frame and while exporting the cache max crashed on frame 1100.
After changing the cache settings I wanted to continue the export, but it starts from 0 again.
Anyone suggestions or is it just impossible?
thnx
Robin

Nope, not possible.
PhoenixFD's method is not comparable because all it has to do is restore a grid state. tyFlow's intermediate states are orders of magnitude more complex and arbitrarily restoring them is not feasible.
If you experienced a crash, submit a bug report:

Thanks for your fast reply.
The crash is probably caused by memory shortage. I was working fine after switching off the caching.
It just takes all night to get to the point where it crashed, so was hoping this could be a solution.

Ah ok, that makes sense. Especially after 1100 frames of export....
Eventually in the future I may try to make exporting a bit more forgiving in terms of RAM usage, perhaps auto-disabling caching if RAM peaks past a certain % of available memory. Currently I don't do any RAM monitoring.
