Material will be a tricky one... Unless it is in the scene... ;)

Will see what I can do.

It ought to recreate UVs and material assignments also, I'd think. :)

Anyway, I have written a small ice node plugin (during the wkends) and this 
node reads some attributes from ice cache in order to recreate the topo. 
Currently i only cache 2 attributes: pointpositions and pointToVertives. It's 
working well.

Just wondering what attributes do you guys need to recreate topo... Keen to 
know how others are using... ;) so that I can share this plugins (with other 
nodes too) with you guys...

Ciaran, thank you very much indeed that worked a treat!   I had a slight issue 
recreating getting the txt_proj attribute over but mostly just a typo in the 
name I think.

for those that are stuck in Production on 2012 still and want a slice of Topo 
caching action from Ciaran, I converted it to work in 2012 and can be reached 
here

now if only there was a centralized resource for uploading and sharing all 
these cool new compounds, tricks and techniques ;)

Best

mine or Softimages? :) no-worries - been there done that already, trick is to 
replace the compiled 2013 node with a renamed 2012 version then export the 
icetree.

et voilĂ  - forward compatability

er...careful. 2013 uses a new super powerful build array from set node that may 
cause your flux capacitor to explode.
