Yeah, I agree, Writers_Block, Blender and MLP work great together for this. I just wanted to give you another avenue that can all be done inside of DS. Remember, you are the one that helped me with the Duplicate Node trick, so I didn't have to keep opening/closing VWD, and creating MT's in several different sessions. Now, I do it all in one session, and complete the work with the technique above.
Zaycrow:
Yes, it can be done in Poser, but I was only able to accomplish it (without third-party tools, or outside 3D software workflows) in PoserPro2014 with the Copy Morphs tool. I am not sure if this feature is in the basic Poser versions (definitely not in Poser9). It might only be available in the Pro versions for creating content.
It is actually an easy workflow. Just complete your MT work on the VWD created static mesh as I outlined before, then you use the Object>Copy Morphs (file drop-down menu), and select Prop>"Your VWD Static Mesh With MT's". There is a caveat, though. It has to be performed per body part (full body - Copy Morphs is not available). But, it transfers all the MT's in one go (no selecting individual MT's). Next, you can dial in all the separate body parts to one morph target, and then Spawn Full Body MT for a complete draped cloth morph on the Body of conforming cloth object. Rinse, and repeat until you have all your draped MT's as full body MT's. Also, all the individual body parts retain their respective MT's, so you can mix and match on that level too.
I hope this has helped you...
