Point Cache asset
The Point Cache asset follows the open-source Point Cache specification and uses the .pCache
file extension. Internally, these assets are nested Scriptable Objects and contain all the various textures that represent the maps of particle attributes.
Point Cache assets are read-only, so if you select one and view it in the Inspector, you cannot edit any of its properties. However, the Inspector displays the values of each read-only property. For information about what each read-only property means, see Properties.
