point cache drop frames

[LarsSonparsson]

I asked this in cgtalk, but what do they know. (nothing)
So I decided to ask this here too...

I have cloth simulation and I have recorded point cache from that.
Duration is 750 frames. Now if I playback animation from that saved point cache,
there is drop frames. Actually there is like double frames here and there.
But is seems that those drop frames starts after frame 200 or so.

Any idea why this is happening?

Thanks,

ideas...hard to say without looking at your pointcache settings. Could be that point cache file is getting too big. Could be due to sampling, i.e. sampling can be too low.

Thanks for input.

pc2 file is about 200 megs when I use 0.5 sampling.
I don't think it's too big.
