@Biscuits: another GREAT tutorial! So nice to hear a voice to narrate the lesson as well... combined with the text it makes it much faster to understand what is being taught.

If I understand correctly, if I am using a prop clothing item, then I have to do a dynamic simulation? Only conforming clothing works for static sim? I was going to model most of my figures' clothing for use in the cloth room, so I am concerned that means I'd have to buy the full VWD with animation support if I want to simulate with my custom-made props... I only have the funds to buy the limited version for just doing static renders.

With a (dynamic) cloth prop you need to go from T-pose to the real pose to get the cloth to follow. That is why you need a dynamic simulation. If I remember correctly the limited version does have dynamic simulation for a limited set of frames. This will be enough to get the dynamic clothing to follow the pose of the figure

I have to add - i am not sure if there still is a limited edition. It could be that that idea was dropped. The version I have works fine with dynamic simulation
