Restoring does not work for cache sequences imported from 3rd party software. It is only possible when the full internal state of a Phoenix simulation is exported (controlled by the Backup Interval parameter in the Output rollout). Frames with the full state are called Backup frames. When a Backup frame is currently viewed, the text "Can Restore From Here" appears in the Cache File Content list. The Restore command finds the latest Backup frame up to the current timeline frame and continues the simulation from there. |
