About Dynamic Clothing Plug in

GreenBean

Hello,

the plug in works fine but it's a question, is there a way to re-size it and keep it the wanted size?

like if used the dynamic sheet, and wanna make it a towel or something, whenever i click on drape, the size gets zeroed back to 100%

help please!

 

Thank you :)

another thing, for some reason The Dynamic Sheet won't drape on the whole body.

it's getting kinda ridiculous to be honest, and it's super stressful.

The trick for resizing is to scale the thing you are draping over, run the drape, freeze it, and then reset the scale of the base item back to 100%.

For the poke-through, make sure that the item is fully outside the figure at the start of the drape and try adjusting the collision tolerance setting, or perhaps number of frames if doing an animated drape

I believe that the 'shrink' factor/setting in the dynamic settings interface is the only way to actually grow or shrink a dynamic item from its starting point/size and maintain its dynamic characteristics. I've also heard folks having mixed results depending on positive/negative values being applied. Many of us have seen the same 'pop-back-to-zero' effect you described, since traditional scaling doesn't work with dynamic items *when draping*. Before or after draping, traditional scaling works fine, but no more dynamic changes can be run after that or you'll see the same pop-back effect...

Richard's recommendation assumes the drape is satisfactory (after rescaling things as he described and after completing the drape), and is 'done' to your liking (no longer needing to be dynamic...), at which point scaling to the desired size won't be a problem, since the dynamics are done. FWIW, This works for both static and animated sequences.

Hi Sam, did you get it sorted or do you need a dynamic sheet in a different size? I can actualy make them as required.

cheers
