Similar situation to a problem I had a few weeks ago, except now I'm on
XSI 4.2... I've a whole load of spring-based animation (all done with
the starndard XSI Tail), but when it comes to rendertime (batchserver)
all the simulation (tail springyness) is lost. Even when I have cacheing
enabled, and even regenerate the cache etc from the 'TailControl' PPG.
The cache works when scrubbing through the timeline, and when rendering
on a single machine, but not when multiple machines are rendering...

I tried running the animation-plotting script someone kindly posted, but
although it worked a treat on version4.0, it doesn't work on v4.2.

Can anyone help?
