I am trying to make the Daz "Fae Realm for Victoria" skirt drape around my figure. I have Victoria 4 sitting in a kind of meditating position on the floor with her legs crossed.

As I am new to Poser, I did everything (I think) that I was supposed to do and read in "Poser 8 revealed". I first saved the skirt as a wavefront obj, then imported it back as a prop, parented it to the right thigh of my figure, went into the cloth room, set up a new simulation, clothified, chose the parts that it was to collide against,(thigs) set the drape frame to 5, and clicked the Calculate Drape button.

Before I did all of that, I also moved my figure from a standing position in frame 1 to a sitting position in fram 16.

When I clicked the Calculate Drape button, basicallly nothing happens. I get another window, saying it is "Draping", but nothing happens.

When I tried it first with Alyson's yellow dress, it worked just fine. The dress didn't exactly drape around my figure the way I wanted it to, but at least, it did calculate and showed me something. within a few mintues.

How would I drape a skirt around a figure sitting wiht her legs cross legged?
