The AnimatedCache Node is supposed to be used only with alembic from Ornatrix? 
If I bring my own alembic curves. Seems that when loading into the Animation Cache. It gets a different shape
If I load as single file in maya is correct the same alembic.

I would like be able to swap between animations just the alembic curve from one shot to the next.

Images show before and after activate the AnimationCache  Node 
AS HAIR
and how the guide is behaving with the node ON

The guides in the hair object and the alembic have to match.

Try importing the alembic curves as Ornatrix Alembic. A hair object will be generated.

Then add the Animation Cache node to this hair object and load the same file there again.

Hi Jeordanis,

I did as you pointed, and the problem still the same.
1) I imported curves using the that made the curves imported straight to baked HAIR>
2) Added the "AnimationCache" node, and pointed to the same curves
And as consequence, the shape of the curve changed
Image attached and the alembic curve file

thanks for the quick reply :)
