I'm hoping someone can help me figure this out. I'm getting a cloth simulation failure about three frames in. The settings are pretty basic. the only thing it collides with is Dawn and the ground. Only the collar is constrained.

 It could be the model, I suppose, but an earlier version of the dress simmed with no problems.

I would run a sim just colliding the dress with the floor. That will show if something will fall apart.

You are getting two defects near the top of the side slit.

You could try more steps per frame or change the collide with options.

I've tried it several times and can't figure it out. Would someone else like to try it out for me and see what they get?

Okay, good news, bad news. I got it working.  Not quite sure how, but I suspect it may have something to do with my bad news. My computer's hard drive death is probably iminent. I can run the cloth sim now with no problem, but  when I get to a final render Poser crashes on me. Something that rarely ever happened before all this craziness began. Anyway, I no longer need anyone to test the dress for me, but thanks if you were about to volunteer.file_9dcb88e0137649590b755372b040afad.jp

Sorry to hear you are having so many problems recently Eclark! Hope you get them all sorted out. :)

I ran Disk Utility on my Mac's hard drive. It said the drive cannot be repaired and that i should back up all my data and reformat the drive.

Sounds like it's time for a new Hard Drive.

Actually, it's probably time for a new computer. Windows PCs are cheaper, but Macs are my workhorse.
