Restore?

[Joelaff]

I have frames 0-120 done for a simulation. They have Temp, Smoke, UVW, Wavelet, and Velocity cached.

I would like to continue the simulation from 121 onward.

The docs seem to indicate I can click Restore and PHX with find the last frame with velocity and continue... I clicked restore (with the current frame at frame 0), and PHX instead overwrote frame 1 (not zero) and continued on to work on frame 2.

Is this a bug, or somehow by design? How should I continue my simulation, or do I really need to start over?

I am using the release 2.1 in max 2014 sp1.

Thanks.

phoenix restores the simulation starting from the position of the timeslider, not from the last frame

Ah, OK. Makes more sense, and is more useful...

You might want to update the docs to make that clear.

Thanks.
