well, if you are working with a skirt, often you don;t even have to do more than load it and even conformit before making it a Hybrid conformer/dynamic. Most creators make the skirts as a single body part (usually hip but sometimes "skirt" etc.)
Load it
Conform it
move the slider to an appropriate frame
move to the cloth room
go thru the C-room steps and make the skirt group (hip etc.) the dynamic group.
run the simulation as you would for a normal dynamic cloth item.
A bit more advanced, but necessary if the skirt is fancy (with seperate trim parts that might fall away during the simulation, or it has a turned under hem) select those areas and make them into a "Soft Decoration" group. THis wil let them move with the simulation but (hipefully) keep their shape (sometimes it works sometimes it doesn;t for me at least). If this doesn;t work you may need some postwork.
