Simulation baking

Before we go ahead and work with the cache bake options, this is going to be the focus of this particular video. There are a couple of extra problems when working with the cloth cache files in Blender, that we would like to highlight. Simply because, the bake options give us the ability to work around them. The first problem concerns the cache list that we have already looked at. Now, we did mention that we can both add and remove cache entries from the list. Which whilst a true statement, is one that could never the less, lead us to make a bit of a false assumption. In our scene, we currently have no frames at all of cached simulation, as confirmed by our readout here. This means, we can safely go ahead and give our list entry a name. Let's call it Test_01. In fact, while we're here, let's add another empty cache to the list and call it Test_02. Now, the assumption we could make is that having two cache options in the list, would give us the ability to switch between the two…
