I’m looking for something better than what comes with 3DsMax. I’ve been using the Cloth Modifier quite a bit, and it’s decent, but it’s biggest flaw is the lack of multi-core support.
I’ve been using it for different things, but proper support for things such as ropes is what I’m also very keen on being able to do more easily.
I’ve heard of SyFlex and SimCloth.
SyFlex doesn’t appear to have any kind of trial version out, so it’s pretty hard to figure out how good it supposedly is.
I’m going to try out SimCloth and mess around with it, see how it works. Though I’ve heard that it’s ill advised to put a modifier on top of the SimCloth modifier, which to me sounds like a pretty major hindrance?
Does either of those 2 plug-ins have proper support for ropes, or do I need to use an entirely different plug-in for that?
But does anyone have experience with both and be able to give a bit of personal insight?
