P.S. I did test it but remember that I’m not running 2016 Ext2 at the moment.

I found the settings: setAttr ".mdf" 5; setAttr ".msr" 1.2000000476837158; setAttr ".mdr" 0.60000002384185791; setAttr ".mkf" 1.5; setAttr ".mrf" 2; setAttr ".mss" 1; but nothing that looks like a boolean in that area. That way I could enable meshing and don't have to wait for the UI to start commandline meshing.... Thomas Volkmann <li...@thomasvolkmann.com<mailto:li...@thomasvolkmann.com>> hat am 26.

If I try to extend a cache (either by setting Read/Write in the UI, or by passing "3" as the last argument for doCreateBifrostCache on the commandline), the only thing that happens is that all my memory gets eaten up. After that UI crashes, and comandline just finishes without a result.... but maybe I'm doing it wrong. I'll check on CGTalk/Society, too.
