Dynamic Cloth fitting adjustments

Hi all,

I'm trying to use the Dynamic Classics bikini and they are too big and there is no way to resize them aside from scaling them! Even when I scale them, the bottoms kind of just melt down the legs. Anyone know how to have dynamic cloth fit better?

    I'm not sure what might be going wrong. I just tried it (the G2F version) and it worked perfectly on a G2F figure. It was actually a bit small, rather than too large. I've also gotten dynamics made for V4 to fit G1 and G2F with no problem.

    Is the proper figure selected in "Fit to" under Parameters>General? What version and model/character are you using?

    I just happened to think, if your using the latest version of DS, did you install the update to the Dynamic Cloth Control plugin too?

    Yeah it's definitely conforming to the right figure. I haven't touched it in a while, maybe the updating is what's wrong!

    And now the same clothing set is falling through the figure! I can't get it to drape at all anymore, it just folds into the chest and slides down inside. This is infuriating! I remember why I hadn't touched it in a while! Any ideas why this is happening anyone? It's on G2F (so not a mesh quality issue) and was JUST working on her.

    Silly question but by chance did you set it to collide with the figure in the Dynamic control or just run the drape?

    If you are using a character that scales the figure you will need to remove the scaling as dynamic clothing won't scale. What you can do is run the drape on the base figure, then freeze it (if you have the Dynamic Clothing Control plug-in, I think) or export as OBJ and reimport, then scale both figure and clothes down without changing the pose (but of course you won't then be able to rerun the drape if you change the pose).

    @Jaderail I have it colliding with the figure, tops worked fine for a while, but bottoms did not. I figured out what was causing it to fall through, but I don't understand why. I have a shoulder length hair that interferes with the collision, so I had it un-checked in the "Collide with" sub menu. For some reason that caused it to not collide with anything, so I just deleted the hair, collided and added the hair again.

    @Richard That's it! I have a scaled down character, so that would explain my issues. I was handlind it by manually scaling the prop itself, but I'll try scaling, draping, exporting.

    Serious thanks for all the replies, I'm super excited to get this working. I know I can't use it for all clothing, but I've been wanting DS to have a Poser style cloth room for ages. Turns out it was right under my nose the whole time (mostly, I'd love to be able to convert conforming clothes!)


    Thanks again!
