d'oh!

 

   okay, we'll see what that does.  my problem is, of course, the inside of the back fold of the poncho is visible, so i had to model it.  :/  ...

 

oh!  oh, the pools are gone, but the back of the cloth is still poking through the front.  hmmm...  i dont suppose there's any self-collision or pass-through preventative things on the simulation?  :/  if i re-run a simulation, do i have to set the magnets to zero before i start?  (i put magnets on it afterwards.)

 

or... maybe i can finese the suckers away...!

 

thanks guys!!
