Subject: Looking for the Poser dynamic curtains video, please

Hi, I am having some trouble getting my dynamic cloth plane to behave as a suspended curtain. I need to refer to the tutorial again, but Google does not show me any result that looks like it is for Poser.  Please could I get a link to it.

I'm not sure this will work because you are starting with a cloth plane, but I suggest using the "constrained" menue in the cloth room to weld cloth points to a "curain" rod and the shrink the curtain rod so that it is shorter at the end of the simulation.

Thanks, @purdon.  I have tried makeing the simulation but have not got the results I want.

I modelled a low-poly Neo-Chinese Pavilion and added vertical cloth planes as hanging curtains.  Even when I specify the constrained groups at the top of the curtain, the entire sheet just drapes and flies away adn down to the ground.

looking at your screenshot, you don't have the constrained group selected but the default group.

Do you want these curtains just hanging fairly straight, or do you want a lot of fold and ripples like you'd see in a window?

@redPahtom, sorry I did show the dynamic vertices, not the constrained ones, in that image.  I have since deleted that geometry and re-worked the hanging curtains, but they still do not drape nicely and will not react to a windforce.  I may need to figure this out a little bit more.

For reference, here's the dynamic simulation which fails:

I have fixed my problem. It was a matter of revising the geometry design in my modelling software, and of choosing the correct vertices in Poser Cloth Room.
