TigerGuy Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I've added a Simcloth material, but "simulate spring systems" doesn't get the simulation going. Am I pressing the wrong button or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerGuy Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 You can right-click in the Chor window>Plugins>Simcloth SimulateGood. Thanks. I thought it would be an easy question, though it never occurred to me. I'll try it the next time I use the program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerGuy Posted January 14, 2009 Author Share Posted January 14, 2009 You can right-click in the Chor window>Plugins>Simcloth SimulateUm, it seems I need to adjust the collision or something. Is there any way to undo the simulation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted January 14, 2009 Hash Fellow Share Posted January 14, 2009 Right-click in chor>remove simulation data? I forget if that applies to cloth or just dynamic constraints. You can also delete cloth sim data by deleting the Splines folder under the object in the PWS. And of course it's good practice to save a version of your work before you run a sim so you have an easy way to revert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Rodney Posted January 14, 2009 Admin Share Posted January 14, 2009 though it never occurred to me. We've got to find a good way to suggest that everyone Right Click often. So many options and solutions are revealed via a simple Right Click. Every new user should set aside a day to do nothing but Right Click and explore whats there! Roberts suggestion to Save first cannot be stressed enough either. If you save first you can always abandon any effort... throw it away... gone forever... with the confidence that you can return again to your last Save and press forward again. A good workflow in A:M will always include Right Clicking and Saving. Doing both often... makes even better sense. Maybe we should request a Save function via every Right Click menu. That'd help us emphasize both of these essentials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I've already made a bad simulation, I think I'll first try deleting the splines folder. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
