The dress in this set can only be used with the Poser Cloth Room!

You will find the dress in the prop library, folder "KW V4 Summertime"


Also included in this set is a template which can be found in the folder:
Runtime\Textures\KARANTA\KWV4Summertime

===================================================================================================


:::::::::::   Usage notes   :::::::::::


Please follow these steps for your first clothing simulation, or have a look at your 
Poser manual if you are not familiar with the Cloth Room: 

Load V4 and the dress into your scene: 

- Click on V4, then in the Menue on "Figure --> Use Inverse Kinematics" and make sure all is unchecked.
- Click on  "Window - Joint Editor" , select V4 and click on "Zero Figure"
- Open your props library and load the dress into your scene.

- Open the Cloth Room and click on "New simulation"
- You can leave the setting as they are or if you just want to make a quicker try - 
  lower the end frame for example to 15.

- Click on "ok"
- Click Clothify and choose the dress - it will be listed under props - then hit Clothify to exit the dialog box.

Select Collide Against, then Add/Remove, and choose V4. 
(The simulation will be quicker if you uncheck all bodyparts which will not affect the cloth)
Hit "ok". 

Back in the Collide Against dialog, make sure that the 'Current Collision Object' has V4 displayed.
You may want to enable the 'Start draping from zero pose' option. 

Quick hint on Collide settings: 
Collision Offset is the distance of the cloth from the collision object and Collision Depth is the thickness of the cloth. 
Play with these numbers as needed to get the results you want. 

Hit "ok"

If you work with the default settings (30 frames), go to about frame 20 or so and add a pose to V4. 
I never apply the pose in the last (30th) frame. You will get nicer and smoother folds if you have some frames after the 
frame you added the pose. When the simulation is finished and the result is to smooth for your taste, you can always 
go a few frames back.

- Click on "start simulation". 

It will take a bit time until the simulation will be done. How much time depends on you computer. 

If you are not satisfied with the result you have, you can play around with the fabric settings. Changes in the settings
can give a large difference for the end result of the simulation. I often use different fabric settings for different poses. 
There is nothing like "best settings" for a pose.  Please have a look at your manual for further, detailed informations to 
get the best settings for the look you want.
