How to set-up dForce clothing

Hexdrake21

Hi! I know this topic is covered a million times, but how do I set-up dForce clothing?

I've followed several different tutorials, but everytime the the sim starts, no matter the settings, I get to 23% on the sim and it stops responding. I have turned everything off but the dForce swimsuit in different combos. I suspect that for some reason the clothing can't be simulated, but I wanted to make sure there's not something wrong with what I'm doing. I basically just added a dynamic dForce mod, created a timeline from 0-30, with the final pose at 30, then simulated the timeline with initial pose off. A pic of my base is attached. I really just wanted a more form-fitting effect, but now I've wasted an hour and a half and I got nuttin. 

I've simulated other items just fine.

This is Digital Creation's G8F Swimsuit 3 and isn't dForce. It has only one surface.

Thanks!

Picture a table cloth draping over a table, that's more along the lines of what to expect when using DForce. It is not a modeling tool to create form fitting clothing with. Technically one might get something of a gentler drape of the shoulder straps and if there was more cloth, something of a drape over the breasts but really, it's stopping because it can't go through the figure to fall on the ground ;-)

{I trust you applied a d-force modifier to the surface before running the sim}.
