Well, the three tutorials I have used are the ones from the Poser 5 manual, the Poser 5 handbook, and HMann's clothing tutorial. For all, the steps are basically the same: 1. Add a figure (either Vicky or Judy). 2. Add a dynamic clothing prop (for Judy I used the Beach Dress). 3. Zero Pose Judy/Vicki in frame 0. 4. Choose the final pose I want in a later frame (15 in some cases, 30 in others, or using HMann's tutorial, just a 6-frame animation, which has worked in the past). 5. Create a new simulation. 6. Simulator settings: In some sims I have left it at zero drape frames, in others I set 20 drape frames, though as I understand it this is not necessary for most props, if there isn't a lot of draping (like with a T-shirt). If I click the "Calculate Drape" button I get the same result as for "Calculate Simulation": it just runs forever. 6. Clothify the clothing prop. Add Judy/Vicki as the object to collide against. I've tinkered with decreasing the collision offset and depth settings, I've done it with and without "Start drape from zero pose," I've set it to ignore hand, head, and feet collisions. 7. Calculate Simulation. And wait forever.
