The prop cloth in this set can only be used with the Poser Cloth Room. 

For using this set you need to have Poser 8 or higher and the Kids 4 from Daz.

===================================================================================================

Included in this set are: 

- Top
- Skirt 
- 14 Material settings (mc6)
- 15 Textures - all 4096 x 4096 pixel

Top morphs:

- Back Shorter
- Bottom Width


The clothing item has an external obj file in the geometries folder.

===================================================================================================

Unzip all files to your Poser Runtime Directory. 


:::::::::::   Usage notes  :::::::::::


Please follow these steps for your first clothing simulation, or have a look at your 
Poser manual if you are not familiar with the Cloth Room. 

:::::::::::::::::::


Load the kid into your scene: 

- Click on the kid, then in the Menue on "Figure --> Use Inverse Kinematics" and make sure all is unchecked.
- Click on  "Figure", select the kid and click on "Zero Figure"

- Open your props library and load the cloth / clothes into your scene.

- Open the Cloth Room and click on "New simulation"
- You can leave the setting as they are or change them for your needs.
- Make sure "cloth self-collision" is checked
- Click on "ok"
- Click Clothify and choose the cloth / clothes. It will be listed under props - then hit Clothify to exit the dialog box.

Select Collide Against, then Add/Remove, and choose the kid. 
(The simulation will be quicker if you only check the bodyparts which will be affected by the cloth)
Hit "ok". 

Back in the Collide Against dialog, make sure that the 'Current Collision Object' has the kid displayed.
You may want to enable the 'Start draping from zero pose' option. 

Quick hint on Collide settings:
 
Collision Offset is the distance of the cloth from the collision object and Collision Depth is the thickness of the cloth. 
Play with these numbers as needed to get the results you want.
The default "1.0" is usually way to high. Try something between 0.2 and 0.5 instead. 

Hit "ok"

If you work with the default settings (30 frames), go to about frame 15 - 20 and add a pose to the kid. 
I never apply the pose in the last (30th) frame. You will get nicer and smoother folds if you have some frames after the 
frame you added the pose. When the simulation is finished and the result is not to your taste, you can always 
go a few frames back.

- Click on "start simulation". 


If you are not satisfied with the result you have, you can play around with the fabric settings. Changes in the settings
can give a large difference for the end result of the simulation. I often use different fabric settings for different poses. 
There is nothing like "best settings" for all poses. 

Please have a look at your manual for further, detailed informations about the cloth room.

:::::::::::::::::::

I highly recommend using the Poser morph brush after your simulation if neccessary. 
With dynamic clothes you will sometimes have wrinkles, sharp folds or strange looking areas 
which need a little bit of work with the morph brush! 

:::::::::::::::::::


I hope you will have fun with this set :)
