Hi, bought this product a few days ago and have been experimenting with it. Some observations / questions, if I may:

  1. When you start a simulation sometimes you see that it's not behaving as you want. For example it might be slipping off the body and you need to start over with more vertices declared for nailing. However once it's simulated poorly there seems to be no way to reset it back to the original shape and start over. All I've been able to do is stop, delete exchange info, kill VWD, go back to studio and resend the whole scene back to a new VWD. Is there a way I'm missing to reset the simulation without having to burn it down and start over?

  2. Related to above, sometimes when killing VWD, Studio crashes even though I deleted the exchange files first and so in theory they are not connected to each other. Is there a way to shut it down from within Studio?

  3. More of a VWD specific question, but I have a reasonably capable i7 processor yet the simulations seem to be a lot slower at default settings than I'm seeing in the various tutorials. Are there any recommendations for settings that might be slowing things down that I could experiment with?

Thanks, this bridge and the VWD are both great products and a real improvement to DAZ Studio's functionality, look forward to getting better at using them!
