Anima 3ds Max mesh cache

update:

v2:   - caching of actors that change visibility during animation playtime is more stable, actor are cached during their first appearance

this version works with  anima 3.xx

and max 2017 - 2019

this script is intended for caching of AnimaScene and actors for later use with motion blur and mesh specific affects.

two option:

cache as a point cache (to specified folder) , or animated vertex mesh

limitations:

anima plugin for 3ds max does not expose any methods, so in order for caching to work, user needs to manually set animaScene node mesh visibility parameter to 999. So that no actors in scene are displayed as arrows
