If to be used with DAZ Carrara 8.5, you must purchase The Carrara bridge to VWD Cloth and Hair (https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/carrara-bridge-to-vwd-cloth-and-hair/115860/)
Virtual World Dynamics presents VWD Cloth and Hair, Version 2.2.
This Windows-based simulation application enables users to alter and 'reform' existing 3D meshes as if they were realistic dynamic hair and cloth items - for the creation of still-images, animations, or new 3D-mesh products for games, content production, or any relevant 3D workflows.
Using the updated VWD Cloth and Hair simulation engine, 3D mesh items will drape, collide, and flow, much as they do in the real world. Precision results can be realize by applying user-controlled gravity, friction, wind, force-fields, and material properties to the 3D meshes resulting in realistic and/or exaggerated mesh deformations.
This product is designed to help users creatively 'sculpt' 3D meshes and use them to produce both still-images and animated-sequences from within Poser 9+/Pro-2102+, DAZ Studio 4.10+, or DAZ Carrara 8.5 (with 3rd Party Add-On from here at renderosity.com). This sculpting process works well without user involvement as the draping process occurs, but it can also be manually adjusted *during* or after the simulation to get exactly the effect your are looking for.
The VWD simulation engine can be configured to help create compelling body-jiggle dynamics, dangling jewelry, flexible string and chain,
furniture cushion compression interactions with figures, inflation of closed mesh figures, jelly-like mesh masses, and any other clever applications that involved mixing and matching these powerful techniques.
The resulting simulated meshes can also be exported from these host-applications for use in other 3D-mesh products, games, and any
other workflows that involve the manipulation and use of 3D-mesh assets.

Warning: As with VWD's Cloth and Hair V1.x, this program is both powerful and complex in its capabilities and operation. While tutorials, documentation improvements, and forum-based support are available, we highly recommend that you try the latest free VWD demonstration version that's available from our Renderosity Freebies collection at:
Before purchasing this tool, it is essential for an operator to learn, understand, and experiment with the available tools and settings in order to effectively produce their desired results.
Those who follow our VWD Renderosity forum have seen periodic updates, fixes, advice and some very compelling renders, all from a great
community of VWD enthusiasts.
