Looks like your vector has flipped? Could you just calculate the shortest
path and compare the values?
I had some trouble as well at some point with this.
The shortest path from what to what?
Keep in mind that this is from a loaded pointcache, I don't have access to
the previous frame, and I don't to load it twice.

Current frame -1 should normally give you the previous frame.

Well yes, of course. What I meant is that I don't want to recalculate on a
loaded cache something that has been already calculated in simulation, and
load the same cache file twice for every frame.

Apparently Xaview knows something that I don't! So it seems there's a way
to revert it back to the original value, that's pretty cool! How about the
axis that changes? Sometimes it's 0,0,1, sometimes 1,0,0, 0,0,-1, etc...

I think you could just apply this logic when you output, unless when you
use the cache again it starts flipping again, which would be utterly odd.
Unless you deal with a specific case of super high revolution, from one
frame to the other it shouldn't spin more than 360 ... I guess.
As for the
I tried to cache the same original value in a custom attribute, Alan was
suggesting that maybe AngularVelocity was a Softimage dedicated attribute
that had to follow certain rules or something. Alas, with a custom rotation
attribute the restult is the same. Softimage is messing with my values!
I suspect it might be converting those values to quaternions internally,
and well, you can't have revolutions in quaternions.
I don't know off the top of my head what to do, but if I have an eureka
moment I'll let you know.
