Select Collide Against, then Add/Remove, and choose Miki 3. (The simulation will be quicker if you uncheck all bodyparts which will not affect the cloth) Hit "ok". Back in the Collide Against dialog, make sure that the 'Current Collision Object' has Miki 3 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. ************* Please change both settings to 0.5 *************** Hit "ok" If you work with the default settings (30 frames), go to about frame 15 and add a pose to Miki 3. 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 to smooth for your taste, you can always go a few frames back. - Click on "start simulation". =================================================== Do the same for the top =================================================== It will take a bit time until the simulation will be done. How much time depends on you computer. 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 a pose. Please have a look at your manual for further, detailed informations to get the best settings for the look you want. =================================================== Templates for the clothes can be found in the folder Runtime\Textures\KARANTA\KW_M3_SkirtTop\Templates ********************************** Have fun :) Kerstin Weihe / karanta
