OK totally newbie question but I'm on a deadline and can't find it anywhere.
Is there a tutorial on how to link the helpers to the "Dynamic Supersuit Set 3 The Mystics" capes?
I've got my M5 and V5 supersuits set up, but can't place correctly or morph the capes.

Yes, I have linked the youtube video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgYkBvmySug&feature=plcp
In order to use the helpers/controllable loops you have to do an animated drape where you go from a character T-pose into your target pose in lets say 15 frames. In that 15 frame you will move the helpers to a position that will help with where you want the cape to fall. They will influence the simulation to go to your target direction.
Many thanks it worked perfectly. :-)
Done with my male superhero but, the female character is taller than usual (V5 Supermodel) and when loading the cape, it lands way below the shoulders.
So is there a way to get the cape higher prior to draping?
abimation, are you sure you have Genesis selected when you load the cape? Both Mystery and Mystic capes should load a bit under or over the shoulder on a T-pose but not too much so that as soon as you simulate it falls into place. can i see a screenshot of how it loads for you?
SimonWM first of all many thanks for your quick response.
To answer your question yes I did have Genesis selected and through Smart Content/Wardrobe I selected Mystic Cape V5 Supermodel.
After 3 single frame drapes it was much better but still went through her armpits.
To recheck i just did it again and If I load Mystery Cape M5 Hero (open) it rests much better on her (but I need the other one)
Here is a mix of screen shots (with no drape done).
Hmmmm BTW is there a way to get rid of the high collar on Mystery Cape M5 Hero?
The capes should load like on my screens on a default Victoria 5 supermodel (sanz the Genesis mesh holes from my Quadro graphic drivers.). From your screen I suspect your character has been scaled. If you want it to work with a scaled character or morphed character you will have much better results if you do an animated drape. start the first frame with a T-pose and defaul V5 supermodel and then on another frame, lets say frame 15 turn on the morphs/scaling that transforms her into your character.
