Many thanks for the replies folks!

(Steven - I've downloaded your "WalkThisWay" script - will give it a go soon.. I'm on PC.)

Just to say, I was only curious. The reason I wanted to know was to get a "realistic" effect on a dynamic gown (by Carib98) when V3 was wearing it, in a still atmosphere, using the clothroom.

What I did was to start with V3 (no morphs) in frame 1, wearing the gown. There were some minor poke-thru problms, so I scaled V3 (body) where necessary to get rid of them. Went to frame 5, removed all the scaling, added a couple of morphs. I added an extra 85 frames to the time-line (just in case) Then I added (from frame 5) the V3 walk-cycle anim. Moved V3 ahead in Z by 2 "ground-squares" in frame 35, added another walk cycle, moved V3 ahead again in frame 65. I broke spline in frame 65. Then I clothified and ran the simulation.

(BTW - it took me several attempts to get the sequence right , a total of about four hours...)

Then I played a bit with the final pose, added hair and a prop, and ended up with a reasonable final pic. Which I rendered in Vue :-P (with some presets..)

And got the above...

(Still a WIP...)

Cheers,
Diolma
