Capes and Cloaks dForce G8F AVAILABLE
A collection of models of a superhero-style cape or cloak, in various cuts and lengths, rigged in DAZ Studio for Genesis 8/8.1 Female, intended for use with dForce dynamic cloth simulation. All of these models share the same UV map and any textures for this item will work on any of them. A large assortment of Iray materials are included, as well as some shaders that allow for various degrees of transparency simulating thread weave. All garments have Smoothing and Push modifiers set to reasonable defaults, to help with fitting.
There are three general cuts of cloak/cape included, that determine the arc of the cape's structure if it were fully spread out: Full Circle, Half Circle, and Quarter Circle.
Four garment lengths are included: Cloak (floor length), Short Cloak (knee length), Cape (waist length), and Capelet (elbow length).
All the assorted material files are shared with my dress and swimwear models and are "flood fill" geometry-agnostic procedural materials. There are also material files that hide/show the brooch, allowing you to use whatever object you like in place of the included brooch, just orient it at the same position and make it a child of the character's Upper Chest.

It looks beautiful and useful! I saw this today and downloaded it right away. You can never have enough capes. Thank you very much!:)
Happy it came out well, I did a bunch of poses using it for the tip images and promo and it was a lot easier to work with than I had even hoped for. I realized I need to make a variety of brooches that can mix it up though.
Brooches are up
