      OK, so you have plenty of grunt. Can you share file?

        Yeah… proper sorted re hardware & wondering if that might be part of the problem? File attached but literally a simple box as collider & a simple plane as cloth for experimental purposes so doubtful it’s a model issue. Cheers for your time on this, Rich.

                  Hi Anton. I'm revisiting this post as recently needed this extension but issue unresolved. Clothworks will not work as supposed to. The simplest cloth rectangle with simplest box collider (following your manual to the tee) freezes sketchup & need to close in task manager. Please help with this issue as paid for extension that cant be used... thanks in advance.

                      Hi,

                      I re-downloaded the model you attached. I noticed the gravity is set to zero. Can you change it to 10? When I change it to 10, the cloth drapes the table properly. See attached picture (I also reduced bending stiffness since it looked to stiff). Also please verify the version of your clothworks. You can go to (Menu) Extensions->ClothWorks->About. It should be 1.7.7a

                      Let me know.

                      Thanks,
                      Anton

                        Thanks as always, Anton. I have input as your calcs & working much better. I'm pretty sure this is a user error problem but I seem to be getting there.
