Cape Animation


Recommended Posts

Here is a Cape Animation I've been working on, it's a work in progress.

I'm not fully happy with it yet but so far this is the best result I've come up with

The Cape was animated with the cloth wizard.

If anyone here has any advice on how to get the cape to animate more naturally please help me with advice on Cape animation...

 

Cape Test

 

Thanks,

Allen

Cloth simulation is a real tough one. I'd venture to say you might even get better results if you hand animate it--especially given the quality of your run cycle. (That's a compliment, lest I'm unclear.)

 

That said, knowing the patch count and layout of the cloth would help a lot.

 

I've found that the cloth simulation works much better for slow actions (say someone with a cape walking rather than running). There are simply fewer opportunities for the cloth to be caught "behind" a set of solid objects.
