@ambrosiussen_p @polycount @seed @EA @sidefx @UnrealEngine @sidefxlabs Can the same set of generated bones be used in the baking of another simulation? Or can you provide a fixed set of bones to bake any sim to?
Looking at this a while back for cloth baking for crowd and it did not look like the houdini implementation supported this?

@MytinoGames That's one crazy Margherita!

@YuriSerizawa_DA Nope! I used a pretty hdri... It would be a lot more impressive if I had!
There's only the foreground noisy volume - and I forgot to fix a bug with that... So now it's all going the wrong direction :(
