usually that somethiung has gone wrong.
IIRC the first is frames, the second is seconds or something taken to calculate that.

You just can't put the words "Poserites" and "happy" in the same sentence - didn't you know that? LaurieA
Using Poser since 2002. Currently at Version 11.1 - Win 10.

Something's definatlye wrong when that first number is higher than the number of draping frames set in the simulation which is usually no more than 30 frames.

I wonder what is wrong? scratching head.

What kind of item or you draping?

A cloth plane over a half tube(laundry draped over a basket)

Hmm, there are a couple of things you should try: First, ensure that in frame one, your cloth is not touching the tube:
Then in the cloth room, you have four cloth collision options (new simulation). Nothing checked off equals the default cloth vertex against object polygon, then with the top square checked its object vertex against cloth polygon and so forth. Sometimes Poser doesn't like what you have checked and you get that way off number, try another selection-one of them should work. If not, try another new scene -something could be corrupted with this .pz3 file. Jan

Thanks I'll try that. I hope I can get this working. I have been closing poser 7 and starting fresh. It became non responding at one point and I had to force quit. By the way Mac OS 10.4.11 Tiger is the operating system I'm using.

One other thing which cloth plane, the high resolution one; that's the one to use. ---Jan

Your cloth plane may be hi-res, but what about the cylinder you're draping over.
There has to be a reasonable number of polygons in what the cloth is meant to collide with.
Try the simulation without any draping frames to see if that helps.
You may also want to try some of the additional collision options (don't use draping frames if you use any).

Just the primitive cylinder. You mean in the simulator enter 0 frames?

I have Poser 5. However, I imported the cylinder primitive, laid it on its side and then imported the hi res cloth and placed it above the cylinder. In the cloth room, I selected New Simulation, set the drape to 10 with nothing selected in the additional cloth collision options. Then I selected clothify and clicked on cloth Plane, In the collide against tab, I selected the cylinder, then clicked on calculate simulation and everything worked fine.
You may have another problem (easily solved).
When was the last time you "cleaned" out your cache, temp files, cookies, registries etc and defraged.
Your Poser software may be scattered all over your hard drive. When that happens parts of Poser simply doesn't work. Doing the above clears up about 95 percent of all problems---Jan

jan, uncle's OS (tiger) does most of those things at nite, if he leaves his machine on.
I kid you not. there are some other things he can do, about which they will know in
mac forum here.

I would like to learn more about how this is done Please direct me to the information if you don;t mind, thanks.

Quote - Just the primitive cylinder.
Make or find another cylinder with more slices.
Quote - You mean in the simulator enter 0 frames?
Yes, enter 0 for the number of draping frames.

unc, see att lnk fr mac forum. there are sevl experts there who can assist one in the details of mac disk maintenance, problems with memory leaks in poser, excessive page-ins/page-outs et al. it's our hope that these problems will be fixed in poser 8.uncle808us posted Tue, 24 February 2009 at 6:13 PM
Thank you both.
