I just had a thought.  Tipol likes the way the tiers flow in the old cloth room.  One of the cool features I have used in the past was to simulate an action and had the cloth flow to the desired position, such as sitting down.  In order not to have to re-simulate the actions leading to the sitting position I would make a morph of the cloth in the final position and a pose for the figure at that same position.  Later I could start a new scene where they start seated and go from there.  Tipol could simulate the Valentine Dress in Poser 13 with everything at the default positions and let the cloth room drape the dress to get the curvy wave they like and make a morph of that.  Go into Poser 14 set up the dress on the figure and then apply the P13 morph which just moves the vertexes into the proper location and then P14 can run the cloth sim on that.  Since the morph position is the starting spots for all the vertexes they will just flow from that spot onwards and not know the difference.  Of course you have to leave the morph in place, but that is no different then what I use to do anyway.
