Quote - **IMHO Conforming cloth is still the most often made clothing becasue DAZ couldn't use dynamics till reciently without extra cost and hardship in varity.**Poser users have been tied at the hip with DAZ until reciently. That is one of the reasons everyone wants/wanted Genesis to run in Poser. Dynamic cloth is actually quite easy to use once you understand a few simple things.

I've noticed that there is a heck of a lot of dynamic clothing appearing at DAZ for use in Studio.

I animate. Dynamics produce great results and conforming not so much.

That is also why DAZ is making dynamics easier for Studio users.

You would think this a no brainer for merchants.

I make a lot of simple cloth for my usage. All of it dynamic. It can be refit for any figure in a few seconds and always flows correctly.

 

Can Daz3D use the same dynamic cloth items that Poser can?

I've been told that to make dynamic cloth that can be used in Daz3D you need a $10,000 application called Optitex?

I've not used Poser since 2006 (I left 3D altogether, only recently got back, and it was cheaper to upgrade my Daz3D so I have. My Poser upgrade is pending and becomes a choice between it and Vue or Carrara) - but i remember taking a simple flat plain and just clicking a setting somewhere to turn into a piece of dynamic cloth.

 

Is dynamic cloth made in Poser compatible with the new dynamic system in Daz3D?

 

Because if not - that is a very big reason to stick with conforming clothing if you're a merchant - so you can sell your stuff to the largest number of users.

 

If the same item sold as Dynamic Cloth for Poser can also work in Daz3D, and vice versa - then yes I would say a lot more items should be produced as Dynamic cloth because I remember how nice it was. Its a big motivator for me to reconsider getting Poser upgraded at some point if I find myself unable to take things from my Poser 7 back into Daz3D.

Truth has no value without backing by unfounded belief.
