Giitterati3d, thank you for that honest answer.

I didn't realise that Miki4 was more complicated than other figures. My first attempt at rigging clothing for a weightmapped figure was with Koz, and I had to be rescued there. I just recently learned how to tweak the joints on clothes for conventionally rigged figures, and this is much more difficult. I am afraid the Poser manual makes it seem easier than it is.

Bulge maps may be part of the problem - the biceps bulging through the sleeve, the breast poking through when the arm is raised. There is a lot more going on than with normal rigging.

Dynamic clothes do seem more and more attractive. But I want to learn this.
