how to save time series openfoam data to mesh as animation without bvtknodes

[ymg2007]

First bvtknodes is amazing!!! I followed the cubeflow cut plane example. Then use timeline to show the plane with different time, it worked fine. I want to save the time series mesh to an animation in blender for someone using blender without bvtknodes. So is there one way to solve the idea?

Hi, no easy routes to my knowledge. You can save mesh from each time step into separate files, but animation with that is not easy.

Is there one way to automate save each time step to separate mesh?

Yes, you can use Python script which first increases frame number, then saves the mesh object. Should be easy, but I don't have exact commands. Have a look in the Blender Python API documentation.
