Apex Clothing setup Help

[purelydigital]

Hi guys!

I've been playing around with the Apex clothing system in 3ds max for the past few weeks. I have a few questions that hopefully someone may be able to answer.

1. How do I deal with multi layered clothing. Perfect example is the Samaritan demo from epic. Straps and coat interaction and difference in materials (Metal buckles at the end of straps).

2. I am having problems getting the self collision to work properly. Playing with thickness does not help.

3. I'm unable to get backstop offset or radius to work properly.

4. How do I get a physical Mesh and Graphical mesh setup going?


I have many more questions but hopefully I can get theses main ones answered.


Cheers
