Hi all,
Just started using Syflex and done a animation with it. The character was designed by myself sometime ago. Had this chance to bring it to life. :)

All comments welcome.

By the way, if anyone has the solution to render 3d motion blur with Syflex in Maya, please let me know too :)

Hi,


I am facing a problem with syflex in maya7.0. I have a scene where character will
be having several layers of cloth like one cloth is on another one. The moment I try to
simulate, cloth gets entangled and give strange look. I don't want any kind of
intersection between layers of cloths. May be I do not know the proper procedure, how
to do that. Please help me out since I am in the middle of my deadline. I am new to forum
So I thought this will be right thread.


Even anybody knows better alternative way, may be without using cloth, please
share with me. I highly appreciate your kind co-operation. can be contacted me

Hi,
Frankly I did not do any collision between the cloths. However, if I were to do it, I would simulate the body cloth first then use it as collision objects for the other cloths. Do it layer by layer may solve the problems.
As for the motion blur issue, I tried using blend shape, which I made a target object at each frame and in the end blend them together. That should enable me to have perfect motion blur solution as it is not depending on the cache objects anymore. Problem is, after applying blend shape, i realise that there seems to be an offset on the animation of the cloth even though I did a linear keyframe of the blendshape node from 0 to 1. That makes me wonder the problem lies in squeezing, say 500 targets into one blendshape node which the 0 to 1 slider has not got enough details to describe....

Anyone got any idea on this issue??
