subframe sampling in batch?

Krakatoa for Maya

Hi,

Any tricks to getting sub-frame evaluation to work when partitioning in batch mode?
I’m getting chattered stepping from emitters moving at really high speeds.

Thanks in advance!

I haven’t tried sub-frame evaluation actually.

I’m not entirely clear one what you’re requesting actually. I have a feeling I have overlooked something. What are the steps I can take to reproduce it with a simple particle system?

You could try using this MEL commmand

playbackOptions -by 0.25

to get 4 samples per frame

switch your playback back again with

playbackOptions -by 1.0

That worked for me and I setup some of shelf buttons with different values (1.0, 0.5, 0.25, 0.1, 0.025)

Ah, thanks for the information. I will try doing an export when using 0.25 playback speed.
