I have a number of scenes of about 200 - 300 frames.

A book opening, a paper bellyband (ncloth) falling off.

The camera moves are done and I am happy with the speed, so Id like the cloth simulations to happen within a certain timeframe.

The cloth now falls which takes about 25 - 50 frames, I would like to extend these.
I looked at controlling the cached frames but Maya isn't co-operating with me!

could I somehow bake the simulation then work with the keys in the dope editor?
