Hi,

Yes, Frank is correct. Currently Nuke doesn't do any clean-up management on the local cache folder and it must be done manually. This issue is already logged as a feature request:

*Bug 21091* <https://secure.thefoundry.co.uk/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21091> -Add ability to delete locally cached files from within Nuke.

Regards,

Peter.

yes, I guess it's a good idea to manually remove the cache files when done. Don't think there is a mechanism built in for that (which would be a nice option though to keep your disk tidy)

Ok got it!

I thought the localising process was automatic... I didn't realise you had to manually make it cache... So what happens when the files are marked "always" and you're finished with your shot. Do you have to manually un-cache the files too? There's no size limit on the localise folder so I wonder if it's going to slowly fill up my local disk until it chokes!

    Hi Jean-Luc,

    you either have to set the Read nodes you want to localise to
    "cache locally" = "always" or set the "local file auto-cache
    path" in the preferences to the root directory shared by all file
    paths you want to localise (i.e. '/server/shows/' ). In the
    latter case the Read nodes' set to "cache locally" = "auto" will
    be checked if they point to the server path and if they do, they
    will be localised.

    Once set use one of the options in "Cache/Local File Cache" to
    start the localising process.


    It took me a moment to figure out as well, but the tooltips helped.


    Cheers,
    frank
