Configure Simulation Settings

To configure your simulation settings, you first need to set the proxy deformer. Then you can simulate collision and set up the solver, which controls the quality of the simulation.

Set the Proxy Deformer

In this section, you will set up the Proxy Deformer. This deformer uses the simulation mesh to deform the render mesh. You will also set up two selections for the jacket and holster to make sure they do not interfere with each other during simulation.

  1. Drag from the Collection pin and search for then select WeightMapToSelection, then connect the Name pin of the MaxDistance Weight Map to the Weight Map Name pin of the WeightMapToSelection node. The WeightmapToSelection node converts the painted weight map into a selection of vertices that can be processed by the Proxy Deformer.

    Add a WeightMapToSelection node and connect it to the AddWeightMap_MaxDistance node

  2. Drag from the Collection pin and search for then select Selection under the Cloth category. Name the node Selection_Holster. Go to the Node Details panel and set the Name to HolsterFaces and the Group to SimFaces.
