Hi All,

I am using the cloth room for the first time in 10+ years of owning poser (did 4 even have cloth?).

I am wondering if the issues I am having are due to the mesh, or the settings of the cloth. In the image you see my piece of clothing. This is a single sided mesh will all normals facing out towards the viewer. Now, the collar of the pieces' normals are not pointing down towards the normals of the cloth directly underneath it. Is this an issue?

What would solve said problem? Do I add a thinkness to the collar so i have normals facing the cloth underneath, does it matter? Or, is the issue in the seeting of the cloth itself? I have tried seeting the collar section to a softbody, I have tried different settings to stiffen it up.... When one part of the mesh gets fixed another part dips underneath to poke through again.

I have cloth settings to interact with itself. ANy and all help would be appreciated. I looked around at all the tutorials I could stand and none of them REALLy talk about practical mesh creation. All of them talk about "how to" in the room, but not "how to" BEFORE you get to the room.......

 

ps: in the image I have the settings of the cloth far away from the body, I have lowered than number in other renders to make it look better, but it doesn't effect the mesh poking throught itself, obviously
