Hi!
We finaly have found a workaround, we are deconnecting the tail in a refmod preload event and reconnect it on a post load one with the method in my previous mail, Now It seem to work.

I'm not sure this is helping any or you already know of the caching. I
have working reloadable refence model tails under their own model inside
character. With tons of problems I've faced learning usage of referenced
models I thought I had luck with tails while others have plenty problems
with them. But after reading this I researched a little more and it is not
that simple anymore.
So when I turn cache on and save scene with referenced model tail dies on
next load. If i leave it off tail is alive on load. When tail dies,
instead of live tail mixer has animation SpringCacheSources that I can
load manually on tracks, those seems fit what I left on cache. I armed
all tails with FK controls + skinbones so I can live with this. Spring
simulation is one go after activation of cache + FK. If I've misunderstood
or you have anything to ask please do so, I'm not very confident about the
matter, and will test some more tomorrow.
