is
Memory
, the data will be stored in RAM. If
it's Disk
, the data will be stored in
temporary files on disk. Storage in RAM is usually faster, but more
data can usually be stored on disk.
This command only affects new Meshes
. To change the cache type
for an existing Mesh
, use OOF.Mesh.Modify with
modifier
=SetMeshDataCacheType.
In the GUI, this command is invoked from the Settings menu in the main OOF2 window's menubar.
