Point Cache
What is it about?
This page covers the Point Cache deformer in Cinema 4D. It replays point animations recorded in a Point Cache tag as a deformer layer — combinable with Fields to blend or restrict the cached motion spatially.
The sole purpose of this deformer is to transfer animations recorded with the Point Cache Tag to an object using the deformer instead of doing this directly. For more information, please refer to the Point Cache Tag.
Example
In the following example, a Point Cache deformer acts on a clone conglomerate. A Box Field and a Linear Field limit the effect. On the left you can see the deformation without fields.
