Hello ribroast,

What is the mesh size and shape you use for your clothes when you make them in MD? For me, the best shape is the triangle and 0.5 inch is generally a good size.

Have tried these values?

Not sure what you mean by 0.5 inch size. I use the triangle mesh with a particle distance of 10 mm (default is 20 mm). This makes the mesh more dense. I export my figures as collada (.dae) from Poser using default settings, centimeters 100%. I import them as a avatar using the default millimeters settings. But now when I export my clothes I use Poser 8.6' settings and the size is perfect. I have seen on forums that other people use different settings but this works for me. I find that exporting at Poser scale or importing at that scale don't work for me. Also exporting the clothes using the same scale that I exported from Poser with (centimeters 100%) makes the clothes as big as a mountain.

When I first got Marvelous Designer I was hoping to make conforming clothes using the quad meshes, but those quad meshes have a really bad poly flow. They would have to be re-topolized anyway. It is easier to just model the clothes from scratch for conforming clothes. Then I started using the dynamic clothes with the Poser cloth room, after using Poser for many years I never really got into dynamic clothes, but now I really like it. Sometimes conforming clothes need a lot of tweaking to eliminate poke through, so it does not take much longer to set up dynamic simulations. The dynamic clothes look more natural as well. It takes me many hours to make a conforming clothes that works half way decent, I am not a pro at that yet, but with Marvelous Designer it takes a hour or less. The first clothes I tried with VWD gave me problems that I could never resolve, but I have had good luck with other ones since. I thought it might have been a problem with the Pauline 2 figure, but it was those clothes for some reason. When I have more time, I will be trying it with hair, and stiffening up some collars and pleats on dresses. The Poser cloth room is somewhat limited in that regard. Also, you can't save your settings, so you have to set it up from scratch every time. I am really happy to have VWD to use, thanks!
