Hey yeah, I found when I cleaned the exchange folder and also changed the nail collisions like Gerald suggested that worked. now I have a new issue in saving multiple drapes. When I pull the animation back into VWD to save again it works fine but if I do another drape ( say dress AND hair) and do the same thing, the hair saves but the cloth is no longer draped...

Good news on getting the first issue under control.

The second one is probably related to either needing to do a one-time 'reload' of all of your scene's xxxx_VWD files into a fresh VWD session to 'remap' all of the various animations, so try this after doing all of your drapes:

Remember that cleaning out the Exchange folder also cleans out all of your animations/drapes in addition to the various trouble-making relic files that sometimes pop up!, so try not to be too quick to clear your VWD workspace before each draping session, or you will likely toss out your previous efforts without meaning too.

To be geeky, you can look in your ...VWDExchangeScene folder and see the *.dyn files, and copy them to a safe place before cleaning out the rest of your stuff with that 'Utilities->Delete "Exchange" files' button. Copy them back and follow the above steps to 'reload' your animations after a clean-up or after you reload your scene in a new DS session. I hope this makes some sense... I've added a section on this in the new docs. Maybe you can review it for clarity... (Let me know)
