Hieru and Oxer - your examples just above are so great !!
how do you manage to generate these voluminous cloth shapes - whether as a pillow or a sack full of potatoes? what I mean is, which kind of cloth surface collides here onto or around which collider to get such a complex kind of result?

A picture is worth more than 1000 words.

New test, ClothWorks+MSPhysics, I modeled the potatoes and they placed with MSPhysics.

Hi Anton.

Bought and testing. Simply AWESOME. It's just what I needed. Anton, you're amazing.

still trying to make pillows.

but I'm not getting on...

Any ideas or tutorials?

@ Oxer: how did you fix the frame?

draping simple grids works fine. I've made a model of my curtain samples

The frame is a pin, select de frame > right click > Make Pin

That's a great tip.

please help me out of my hole - I try and try but don't get any idea what to do in which way to achieve such kind of shapes

The frame is a pin, select the frame > right click > Make Pin

Thank you for the pictures. Please forgive my dullness, but could you explain how to use each of the pictures?

That's very smart...it will probably remove a step when I record my pillow workflow .

Care Frederik!! "The curiosity killed the cat"

The possibilities are endless, you can use ClothWorks to create a lot of different organic objects, more examples at the end of the day or tomorrow.

But seriously...
When I converge the cloth+frame with the balls (collider), the cloth doesn't bend as I would expect...

I press the ClothWorks play button, click the frame (pin) and drag the red arrow towards the balls, but the cloth just remain stiff and doesn't fold around the balls...

I don't get the result HornOxx is showing in his animation...
I assume that's caused by the cloth isn't "inside" the frame...?!?

Oxer · 23 Apr 2018, 18:51

HornOxx & Frederik, the trick is to create the frame with 3 elements because if the frame is an unique object ClothWorks creates a box for the pin and this makes that the cloth does not move. See the image.

REMEMBER: The cloth should enter a little in the frame.
