Here is most of an answer to my own question. The context is that I am making a new Conforming Cloth, so that when done I don't need to use cloth room, except in extreme cases. Steps for using Dynamic Cloth to make a Conforming Cloth for a different character. Example: Vicki "V2 Dress" to Judy. * Load target figure from library [Judy Nude] * Judy in Joint Editor: Zero Figure * Import Geometry/...OBJ for cloth. [ZygoteClothing/blDress.OBJ] NO boxes checked. * Cloth Room: ** New Simulation ** Clothify dress obj ** Collide Against Judy UNCHECKED "Start Draping from zero pose". (Don't need because did Zero Figure above). ** Simulation Settings: Drape Frames: 1 ** Press "Calculate Drape". (which wasn't selectable, so I did "OK" to leave dialog, then Simulation Settings again) * Export dress Obj. Checked: "Include existing groups..." "Weld body part seams" * Make a CR2 for the dress: ** Set Poser 5 to NOT use compressed files. ** Load P5WomanCatSuit. ** Save it back to library under a new name (now have a .CR2). ** In MorphManager, remove body morphs from catsuit cr2 (since catsuit has a different mesh than this new cloth). ** In a text editor, edit the two "figureres" lines of cr2 to point to the OBJ exported above. ** Find the "name" line in the cr2, and change it from "catsuit" to "RedDress". ** Save text file as RedDress.cr2, in any CHARACTER folder. [I'm making a new conforming cloth, not a new dynamic cloth]. * Try it out: ** Quit and Restart Poser (to make sure it sees the new cr2). ** Load Judy from library ** Load RedDress from library. ** Conform figure to Judy. Results: Mostly worked! Yes, I can move Judy, and the conforming cloth follows along! The dress basically conforms, except for these issues: * terrible fit at back of arms and back of buttocks. * skirt is "torn" in front (at two borders where "hip" part hangs down between "legs". * some vertices at elbows are way out of whack. But I'm on the right track! Even for situations where dynamic cloth is the way to go, I believe it would be useful to start with an OBJ that has been pre-draped to the zero-pose figure. Agree/disagree/alternate ideas? P.S. Thanks to all those who have posted tutorials about how to mess with Conforming Cloth, and editing CR2 files... -- ToolmakerSteve
