Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted May 29, 2014 Hash Fellow Share Posted May 29, 2014 My next "It Can't Be Done" series will be on Simcloth in A:M. (I'm going to award myself a book by Martin Hash for suggesting that topic. ) Cloth seems to be one of those things that people find very enticing when they see it but very frustrating when they try it themselves. I think a series that builds up the knowledge base from the basics to the useful tricks would be a good thing. Here is your chance to suggest particular cloth things that you would like to see solutions for. i probably won't get to this until July, after the Image contest so you have time to think about what you want to see. tJRN4-A5I5E And if you didn't catch my previous "It Can't Be Done"... check it out!

zandoriastudios Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 You could do a multi-part example: not just clothing, but layering clothing simulations, and using cloth for other things (soft-bodies?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
largento Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Bravo! Count me as one of those people wary of using cloth simulations (and hair, and dynamics, and physics...) :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted May 29, 2014 Author Hash Fellow Share Posted May 29, 2014 If someone wants to contribute an example PRJ of something they tried and couldn't get to work, that might be useful for this series to give me something practical to talk about and show. It could be sent to me privately so you don't have to make your PRJ file public. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zandoriastudios Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Maybe William Detweiler can give permission to use the Knights horse from "Adventures with Boomer". It had cloth barding, but he had trouble getting it to work and abandoned it for the project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fae_alba Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 at one point I tried cloth on Papa Bear's shirt, and had to give up on it....I can send you a copy of the latest model if you'd like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*A:M User* Shelton Posted May 30, 2014 *A:M User* Share Posted May 30, 2014 Robert I have had several things with cloth that need help Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detbear Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Hey....I just saw this thread from way back. I missed it when it was running. Yeah...I couldn't get the barding cloth to work as it was. On a horse running and moving, it got all messed up. At the time, I didn't have the extra time to do R&D on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
