Quote - ... A last item: I don't think that the 10k $ OptiTex software is for cloth simulation; I think that it is a CAD tool to optimize the positioning of clothing patches (or whatever they are called) on the strip of cloth to be cut. I saw references to a 1500$ OptiTex product that might be what we are talking about.

That was what I was looking for last night, Alex: those references. I can't imagine Daz PA vendors plunking down $10,000 for software... the ROI would be - negative. :biggrin: Thanks for the reality check (no pun intended )
