Info
Under Under File | RealFlow > Preferences > Simulation (General) > Stop simulation on write error you can tell RealFlow what should happen when write errors occur. You should enable this feature when you export Alembic data, because RealFlow might crash when there is no space left to store the ABC files.

 

How the Files Are Stored

When the files are stored in an alternative location RealFlow does not make a copy of the project's directory structure - only common subfolders like "particles", "meshes", or "fields" are created:

  • This means that already existing files might be overwritten if another project points to the same drive and contains nodes with identical node names, e.g. “Circle01”.
  • Nodes in → cache mode recognize alternative paths.
  • The → creation of previews is also not affected by alternative paths.
