    Hello James,

    There are two things to keep in mind when simulating with texture:

    1. Ensure to apply the texture directly to the faces within the group. It is typical for a user to apply texture to the outer group, which is incorrect.
    2. If intend to visual texture changes, while simulation is running, and not just after simulation stops, ensure Update Textures in Simulation tab of the UI is checked. You can also disable Draw with OpenGL API to actually visualize an actual flag group changing rather than a temporary geometry.

    I attached a link to the flag model, I just created for ClothWorks. Upon downloading, you can press play to see texture changing in effect: flag_with_texture.skp

    When you download the file, ensure that Update Textures is checked and Draw with Open GL API is unchecked. You can disable these options if you only care about seeing the texture changes after simulation ends (this improves simulation performance).

    Also, when simualting a flag, ensure that Self-Collide is unchecked. Flag geometry overlaps can be mostly eliminated by adding the bending stiffness, as used by the model above. Self-collision is currently unstable (I have this on the to-do list, which I will focus upon after updating a few of my other extensions).

    Thanks,
    Anton

      Clothworks is a wonderful plugin, but it appears not to work any more with SketchUp 2020.
      At least I am not able to activate it.
      Any help would be much appreciated. 😞

        It actually works fine in SketchUp 2020. The first thing I would check is that you have installed SketchUp correctly. On Windows that requires right clicking on the downloaded installer and selecting Run as administrator from the context menu. If you didn't do that or you don't remember, find the installer or download the latest one from sketchup.com/download/all.

        Do you have the Sketchucation Tools installed? Did you get the license file?

        This was done in SU2020 today.

              Hi,

              Because PayPal doesn't support sales in Turkey, we are currently limited with where we can sell a licence.

              Please send an email to clothworks@sketchucation.com for an alternative.

              Thanks,
              Anton

                Hi Anton,

                I bought this plugin with my personal ID in hurry, but it was actually for my company and I need to transfer it over to my work ID (DU_CAD). Please let me know how to go about it. Thank you.

                    Добрый вечер! Являюсь обладателем лицензии, после обновления SketchUp приложение не работает. Когда появиться поддержка SketchUp 2021?

                        I'm sure Anton will get it sorted out and issue an update. 2021 hasn't been out that long so it might take him a few days.

                          Clothworks uses the SCF licensing system.

                          This has been updated with the SketchUcation Toolset v4.0.0 to suit the v2021 changes.

                          To use licensed tools like this you will need to install the newest version of the SketchUcation Toolset and restart SketchUp.

                          😉

                                  This plugin is really impressive ! Thank you

                                  2 Questions for you :

                                  -First : ❗ ❗ After a few try of this plug on sketch2018, Sketchup Crashed on Startup everytime. I had to uninstall clothworks to be able to use sketchup again. What's wrong ?
                                  -Second : i'm trying to do a thick bed sheet (exactly like this https://ak1.ostkcdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/11620191-how-to-buy-bed-sheets-facebook.jpg)

                                  But i don't know how to make a right thikness with a good selfcolission . I tried to simulate a plan and then apply a thickness with the plugin 'shell' but the result isn't good

                                  Any idea ?
