Best way to use Chaos Cloth: Kinematic Collider in Unreal Engine 5.4

[@PabloEmmanuelDeLeo]

The BranchCollection is for optimising the calculation and Switching between the skin and the simulation that helps to optimise the real-time process.

[@fabgmoraes]

Thank you very much for making this video. I was strugling a lot with this feature a few weeks ago and couldn't find a solution for that.

[@MR3DDev]

Glad it helped

[@odealajoie-fr]

Thanks a lot for this tuto, i was very discouraged a few month ago about MD and Chaos Clothes and now, you gave me hope!! I subscribe for sure!

[@itsMBWAAA]

Super glad KZbin recommended me your channel. Can’t wait for more! Thanks!

[@itsMBWAAA]

Holy shit! I just saw you already have like 36k subs!!

[@Lynyan8567]

Exactly when I needed it! Thank you 🙏

[@IliaCinema]

yes. please! waiting impatiently

[@lilac1484]

This is soooo helpful!!! Thank you very much! I'm also waiting impatiently for the more complicated setup tutorial (clothes with layers like layered skirts 🙏) 😉😉😉

[@MR3DDev]

Its coming ;)

[@opsxp23]

Best explanation ,thank you!

[@PHATTrocadopelus]

Thank You! They need to simplify this!!

[@MR3DDev]

It's a very technical process so I am not sure that can be, I tried my best to make it easy :)

[@룰루랄라-t5k]

Thank you sooooooo much!!!!!!

[@GlassesAndCoffeeMugs]

This works great for me but I have a customizable character with morphs etc. It would work much better if we were able to change the proxy collision mesh dynamically at runtime, for example to have the same morph targets that the character mesh has on the proxy mesh, and have the proxy mesh update its shape when morphs are applied.

[@cook4000]

Thanks for this awesome video -- will this work in sequencer?

[@qaisarmirza]

Great job 😛

[@MR3DDev]

thank you :P

[@jumpingfrog4323]

Excellent one. Could you please do a t-shirt with jacket on top please?

[@marc.kleinmann]

Awesome Tutorial ,🥳 so glad I found this. Any idea why UE takes minutes [3-5] 'Evaluating nodes...' every time I load the ClothAsset and/or make changes to it? Assume the number of clothing meshes playes a role as well?

[@tamamo08]

This video shows how to make part of a character mesh a collider

[@Venenodigo]

Thank you for the tutorial! Do you have any idea about how to make a character with morphs (character creation, height, lean, chubby, breasts....) update it's collision at the same time players tinker with the morphs?

[@robertadams3925]

Every time I do this I end up getting a see through cloth, like only the back side of the clothing shows through to the front. I've tried setting the FBX in static mesh import as the FBX created from importing the USD, and I've also manually exported a clean FBX into blender, made sure it looked correct, and then imported into unreal from there. Still the cloth is giving a weird projection look. Have you ever run into this?

[@vikasbiradar5802]

I was trying to use this chaos cloth in my project and it sucks.....I was so frustrated and give up on this chaos cloth. These epic guys just through new things and features without any proper guidance.

[@jamesonvparker]

Can this be used to create wind simulations on cloth? I’m having trouble figuring out how to do this in Unreal. Although, I do see people simulating wind in MD. Is that the best way to do this? I’m trying to accomplish something like a reporter in stormy winds.

[@MasterTheTask]

hey great video i was wondering how can i get the pants to collide with the t shirt because the tshirt goes through the pants

[@MR3DDev]

You need to layer that in MD then there is a node for layers. Or you can do as the captain Roux example where the shirt is rigged normally and not simulated.

[@alejandrovallejo4330]

I followed every step to the letter, but when I simulate my simulation keeps using the pill skeletalmesh coliders instead of the static mesh.

[@dirgel501]

Hi, do you know how to make cloth asset collide with the environment (like chair)?

[@MR3DDev]

I would use chaos cloth the old fashion way for that.

[@dfgdfvgh]

@@MR3DDev Excuse me, is there a plan to release a tutorial? look forward to！

[@sahinerdem5496]

Create a box mesh for skeletal mesh's "root" bone, Widen it, Then Cloth will collide with ground, For a complex environment colliding for cloth's physics's asset, Create unused bones' capsules and put around cloth in physics aset editor then you may do it in a fake way, Colliding with environment impossible in unreal engine in itself, I'm not sure of Unity has this, I think they have...

[@AmjoodBasha]

Thank you so much! Will this still work on my custom character (already has cloth on) and I usually only assign material and then do the cloth simulation as I used to do in 5.3?

[@MR3DDev]

It should

[@michaelvaughan2986]

Would love to see it done without Marvelous and USD, like for models made in Blender.

[@realnickg]

Have you tried this with custom Metahuman bodies yet? So I played around a bit and used my custom body, rigged some cargo trousers in Maya, merged with the combined mesh then bought from Maya to UE so I could get the collisions easily with the trousers. Bang! crashes every time I try to transfer the skin weights - I think I took it too far...

[@MR3DDev]

Not yet but there will be a video on custom bodies with clothes soon

[@redzeroo6068]

This is my exact problem now.

[@Ethan-gu9hm]

Yeah I'm getting the same crash with my custom human body mesh

[@realnickg]

Turned out my problem wasn't with the mesh. It was the clothes. Any overlapping in material, even stitching, causes it to crash. So essentially it's only good for simple garments which is in the documentation but I didn't realise, practically how much that limits you. On that basis I gave up with this.

[@Ethan-gu9hm]

@@realnickg thank you for the information. Have you found a new way to do cloth sim? I have been using Kawaii Physics but it leaves so much to be desired.

[@abdallahhosny8168]

cant find the m_tal_collider

[@Vlogdelguia]

And when is the neck?

[@Ngomes007]

I assume to texture the clothes for chaos, I have to export a fbx to Substance Painter,

[@MR3DDev]

Texture works the same as on any asset

[@favourfavour7118]

Hello brother..I’m still having this LOD switching problem despite removing lod 1 and 2 pins.. and this thing only happens in the unreal engine main viewport when I’m moving my camera around

[@MR3DDev]

Interesting as soon as I removed the pins issue went away, I’ll have to test some more

[@favourfavour7118]

@@MR3DDev I’m starting to feel like maybe it’s a bug or something cus I have forced it on LOD 0 everywhere possible yet it continues to switch

[@MR3DDev]

@@favourfavour7118 its possible

[@favourfavour7118]

@@MR3DDev turns out it comes out fine during final renders(definitely a bug)
