Complex UV Layout in Maya
Over the last couple of years UV layout in Maya has changed for the better. In this course we're going to be taking a look at some of those changes as we UV map an entire character

ncloth

Hi I have a cached ncloth simulation which is simulating lovely.

But it occurs too quickly. Is there a way I can slow it down in the scene, so I don't have to change my camera moves etc in the scene.

Thanks
Graham

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?

you should be able to grab the frames and move them forward

The trax editor did the job.
