Wouldn't it be better to have this option as a permanent option, not scene based ?

Also with an offset it would be possible to use the same TFD simulation in the scene many times ( with different offests ) like when having a torch fire simulation.
I've added a frame offset parameter for the TFD sequences for the next build.

I have a suggestion. I don't know if you remember? But I mentioned before about the need to use reload, if I create sliders to control camera settings.. like DOF.. manually.
Would it be possible to add a timer to the interface (that I can set) so that I don't have to keep pressing that reload button every time I move a slider? Like once a second or so?
I know it depends on how quickly things are able to reload of course, but I think you know what I am after. It would help make things a bit easier.

You have several IPR commands like "Octane_IPR_Redraw" and "Octane_IPR_Reload" that you can assign to a hotkey if you need to use these functions frequently. Hope this helps.

Thanks,
