Use these options to set what happens when you select Replace geometry caches.
. See alsoSpecifies the location on your server or local disk to which the geometry cache you want to create to replace the current cache is saved. The folder icon () allows you to browse to a different directory than the default.
Specifies the base name for the geometry cache you want to create to replace the current cache.
Sets the Cache Name as a prefix. When on, the base names of your geometry caches are the current object’s names plus the specified Cache Name as a prefix. For example, the cache file names for an object named Ball with the prefix ted are as follows: ted_Ball1, ted_Ball2, ted_Ball3 and so on.
Specifies the Maya cache format.
Creates cache files that use 64-bit indices. These cache files can exceed 2.0 GB.
Creates cache files that use 32-bit indices. These cache files cannot exceed 2.0 GB.
Set one of the following options:
Specifies that one geometry cache file per frame of the specified Cache Time Range is created.
Specifies that one geometry cache file for the specified Cache Time Range is created.
When on, one geometry cache file (if One File is on) or one geometry cache file per frame (if One File Per Frame is on) for each of the selected objects, for the specified Cache Time Range, is created.
When off, one geometry cache file (if One File is on) or one geometry cache file per frame (if One File Per Frame is on) for all the selected objects, for the specified Cache Time Range, is created.
This option is only available when multiple objects are selected.
Set one of the following options:
Specifies that your current Render Settings determine the Cache Time Range.
Specifies that the current playback range in your Time Slider determines the Cache Time Range.
Specifies that the range of frames between (and including) the specified Start and End times determines the Cache Time Range.
These fields let you specify a Start and End time for the Cache Time Range.
When creating a geometry cache, one sample of your object’s deformations is taken every frame and saved to your cache by default.
Evaluate every frame(s) specifies how often samples are taken during geometry cache creation. For example, a value of 2 caches the deformations of the current object at every other frame of the Cache Time Range.
Save every evaluation(s) specifies which samples are saved during geometry cache creation. For example, a value of 2 specifies that only every other sample specified by the Evaluate every frame(s) option is saved to your geometry cache.

Specifies that the replacement geometry cache inherits the position (in time), trimming, splitting, and scaling of the cache it is replacing.
