Important note this tutorial missed: If your cloth is all jittery and curls up on itself instead of being smooth , make sure to scale it x10 atleast, clotch simulation requires big dimensions for some reason. Took me a while to figure out

[@Mr_Mijagi]

Good tip! But this can be caused as well by the default distance value in the selfcollision tab. (in the cloth settings "Collisions"->"Self Collisions" -> "Distance".) If you lower that value (which has the same effect than increasing the size of the mesh) from the default 0.015 m to let's say 0.001 it mostly solves the problem described above. It can cause some clipping but if you increase the value a bit more again, but keep it under the default value, you should be fine. :)

[@Difreo]

I thought the same thing. If you want to avoid a headache, enlarge the mesh. The standard plane size is 2x2m so the figure is about 10m high. This should be indicated in the video.

Plz make a video on Supposed I have 5 rigged body physics applied balls And I wants to drop them on a surface but one by one How to do that ? When I play animation all balls falls at the same time

[@GraphicsMK]

You need to enable or disable dynamic option in rigid body physic. And animate this property. So,ur balls wont drop down at the same time.For more information you can watch my lecture about rigid body physic.kzbin.info/www/bejne/nnnGkGptlNaWo68

[@timholmes7913]

Which mixamo character did you use?

[@GraphicsMK]

Actually this is not mixamo character. I just used mixamo animation on the another character.

[@Diyosh]

Thanks how to fix the gaps in the clothes?

[@GraphicsMK]

You can scale up ur cloth before playing the simulation.Also be sure that ur sewing force enough.

[@Diyosh]

@@GraphicsMK its still the same thanks tho

[@GraphicsMK]

@@Diyosh Maybe still too small on the X axis and sewing vertices can not reach each other.

[@ninja_tony]

@@Diyosh One thing you can do is apply the cloth modifier, go into edit mode and manually adjust/close the seams you're having problems with, and then apply a new cloth simulation again after that. Basically, that lets you turn the piece of clothing into an editable object so you can fix the seams yourself, and applying a new cloth simulation at the end allows it to behave like cloth again and allows you to animate it as you did to begin with.

[@anotherguycalledsmith]

@@Diyosh Are you sure that these are really gaps in the cloths? It might be the character the cloth is colliding with that is coming through. You need to adapt the distance of the cloth accordingly then. As far as I know, you can go to the specific keyframe where it appears and use a brush to alter the weight for this specific area of your cloth on that keyframe.

Haven't you parented cloth to armature? I guess sew does the job. For some reason i was never able to sew cloth. My characters have big breast and backs and sew won't fill larger gaps, i guess. Great tut though.

[@GraphicsMK]

In this tutorial, I didnt parent the cloth to armature. It means I just model a cloth with cloth simulation.Also you can sew the cloth for ur larger side view character. You can increase sewing force value,and also you can increase shrinking factor, so the cloth can wrap the character as tightly as possible.

[@zerpitbeamx8024]

Did u even sew it?

[@andie.pi.]

Not sure why when I play the animation, the shirt just falls off of the character. Both have collision on.

[@GraphicsMK]

Maybe u need to increase the cloth quality value at the top.

[@anotherguycalledsmith]

The shirt only should have _self-collision_ (!) on (that is part of the cloth modifier), but no collision for itself. Only the character has a full collision modifier applied to it.

[@andie.pi.]

@@anotherguycalledsmith thank you! I will try this

[@anotherguycalledsmith]

@@andie.pi. Hello, Andrea, you are welcome ;-) In my very first try, I did the same, but the correct way is rather simple. The _cloth modifier_ is added to the mesh of the shirt and the _collision modifier_ is added to the character (or a plane representing the floor). If you leave this collision modifier off entirely, the shirt would fall endlessly into oblivion ;-) But the shirt being a mesh with cloth modifier would normally have _self-collision_ checked as an option. That simply means that the shirt whenever it is getting into contact with itself would deform only on the surface of the shirt - but not intersect with its own mesh (intruding its own mesh) because of calculations of the physics engine. Crazy math behind it, I am so happy that we _only_ need to apply this modifier and do not need to calculate something like this by ourselves… ;-)

[@lordrex34]

For some reason my T-Shirt wrinkles itself in a bag of pile after few frames of the cloth simulation. Any idea?

[@GraphicsMK]

You can increase quality steps.Or ur bending and compression values may be very low.Also sewing shrinking factor value may be high.

[@lordrex34]

@@GraphicsMK thank you, it seems better now - I still have issues (especially around the boobs and such on my own character) - on another note: do you also have videos for characters bearing multiple morph targets?
