Pyro Explosion Cached Version is Smaller in scale than live

[appointment-insect]

I was able to follow along with this tutorial until I wanted to cache and view the results.
I had a very odd problem when I cached the simulation. The cached files are about 20% the size (not file size, but viewport size) of the viewport when compared to the RS renderview. They were the same while not cached, but the moment after creating the cache, the RS renderview shows the exact simulation, but it is 1/5 the size.
Here are my project files:

Here is a screenshot of the difference RS Renderview/Viewport:

I am still not able to wrap my head around the vast visual changes to Pyro in C4D 2023.2.2. The pyro appears completely different, and I believe it has something to do with the changes to the Noise section in Pyro. I was able to alter some settings to begin to get the same wispy nature of Noseman, rather than the blockiness of the 2023.2.2 system.

Working on a Macbook Pro M1 Max 64, Ventura 13.5.

I posted this on the tutorial questions page, but got no response in 12 days. I assume it is because caching the render is not a part of the tutorial so I need to post in the QA forum.

Hi appointment-insect,

Thank you for the files and for using a trusted cloud option (Google). That helped a lot. Very much appreciated.

You posted where it belonged, but I missed it. Sorry about this. Having a few days off certainly prolonged a proper answer.

The simple answer is to use a camera, and when you have the same camera for the Editor View and the Render View, it is the same size.

All the best

I completely understand about the post. I am glad that you are able to take days off. I have been flooded teaching Drone flying this week, trying to get a unit in before our DJI drones here in the USA are grounded because of RemoteID.
I added a camera, but still had the same issue. I made a screen recording of the issue while using an RS Camera. Perhaps you could look one more time?

Thank you sir.

Hi appointment-insect,

Thanks for the demo.

Here is a scene file that allows us to see a fresh start; I have placed a Mesh Object to it for precise comparison. When this works, we can take a look deeper. Use a new scene for new tests.

CV4_2023_drs_23_SIsc_01.c4d

I would just start over; I have tested this scene with 2023.1 and 2023.2, just in case. The pale-greenish shape should be the same. The Triangle is just another check.

Let me know if that works for you.

All the best

P.S.: I hope an affordable device for your DJI drone will be soon available. (I have the same problem, but my pilot license needs renewal, so I have no time pressure currently.)
