ICEcache mode should work fine - you just need to possible recreate or
copy the Instancing section on the cloud in.

Cheers, guys.
So it appears that with either of these methods we can only get it to
work with one feather type?
Am I missing something?
As we can't access the attribute that defines the feather type (1-6
within the group) the set instance doesn't look like an option and the
polymesh duplicator only allows one instance object too? I seem to
remember that momentum has an instance to geometry function but the
studio I'm at doesn't have it. Is there another instance to geometry
script out there? I can't seen to find one.

We did it this way too on Zam - but you can only use one instance
this way, unless things have changed since then?

I have been working with this feather tool for two years now my
formula to make it work is:
Step1
In scene one
Create the feathers with mbfeather tool on your character save
this as a base scene
Step2
PolyMesh Duplicate the feathers (this example is for one type of
feathers)
Step3
With that *poly mesh* of the feathers, save it out as a obj and
texturing that.(remeber to set the UVs before export)
Step4
In scene two, I animate the bird.
Then point caching animated Character and a applying the cache to
the mbfeather character in your base scene, the character now
movers and the feathers go with him.
Step5
cache the mbfeathers* Poly mesh* as it still is linked to the
mbfeathers sim
Step6
apply the cache to the exported obj, in scene two, the animated
scene.
Works nicely
