i'm using cloth simulation for the first time in an animtion, and i'm going ok with it, Until my character makes a realy fast movement and the cloth intersects, and then explodes. how do i fix this?

If you look carefully, it would seem that the cloth collides with the mesh on his way down. Actually, what I'd suspect is the culprit here is too few samples per frame. The faster your mesh is moving through space, the more samples(steps) you are going to need. I'd try uping your adaptive subdivisions too.

Let me know if that helps. I've been using simcloth for a few years now, so I'm pretty comfortable with it.

Kickass animation, BTW!
