Ok, I think I want to jump into this again, just some basic questions.  The dynamic bikini thread got me thinking.

I'm doing something with a free item dynamic shorts,
Wonder Shorts (Basic) for V4 Elite, and other V4 creations, but could you also use the regular Victoria 4 basic clothing, or should it be a dynamic item?

Now - in regular poser terms, do I conform this or parent it in any way before heading to the cloth room?

As I can tell, I need to give the simulation about 30 frames to correctly set itself.  So at frame 1, do I have the character posed standing, then at say pose 20 have them in the final pose I want, leaving 10 or so extra frames for the sim to better place the cloth?

Since i've never gotten there, what happens when the simulation is done? Can I just go and render frame 30 for my final image?

 

Thanks for any help!
