    01 January 2018!
    This is as good a time as any to start diong something with the characters that I've created for the "Sladen Stories" universe.

    I have no intention of doing any full blown web comic, just a series of fun comic style panels exploring whatever comes to mind during Clara Sladen's tenure as Captain of her ship (That I have not thought of a name for yet...)

    So....
    Here is Cpt Clara Sladen and Security Chief Astrid Langford staring in the first comic!
    Click on the image for full size, And here's the link to it on my Gallery Page.

    What did you use for their uniforms?

    Exoline Undergarments for Genesis 8 Female(s) and April Rain Undergarments for Genesis 3 Female(s)
    Both are using materials from the Exoline set. (on the left is G8F and on the right is G3F)

    Dforce in use:
    Bed and blankets

    This is just purely awesome!

    The bed and blankets where simulated in layers:
    1 - Move blankets out of the way (up)
    2 - Move bed down enough to not be coliding with the character, and back to zero at frame 20
    3 - Set the Bed as a dForce object
    4 - Change Dynamics Strength : (Bed Frame = 0)(Sheet/Matress = 0.7)
    5 - Run simulation (Character is now pressed into and deforming the bed
    8 - Set bed Simulation to Freeze Simulation = Yes
    7 - Set the Lower Blanket as a dForce object
    8 - Place main blanket to a location where it will fall where you want it draped.  (Just high enough to not colide with character.)
               I ended up moving the character forward a little then having her move back to start location as the blanket fell (on the final version of the drape)
    9 - Change Dynamics Strength = 0.9 and Collision Offset to 0.5
    10 - Run Simulation (Character is now upder the blanket)
    11 - Set blanket Simulation to Freeze Simulation = Yes
    12 - Now repeat steps 7 - 11 for the Top Blanket

    Now set up your lights and camera then hit render!

    Ooo, thanks for the play-by-play. It really helps as we all try to get a handle on this new tech.

    I've found in my travels through dForce that multiple layered items don't always play nice together when simulated simultaniously. (Or even if they play nice, you get some strange poke through between layers)  So simulating layer by layer and freezing the sim on the completed layers avoids some of the issues (and explosions)  Plus it also gives you more control over what's happening between simulated objects.

    The ability to look at the way a layer drapes and say, what if I move it a little this way... then drape again without simulating the whole scene again.

    One thing to watch out for though :  The "Clear" button on the simulation tab, will still clear everything even the frozen parts.

    I found that out the hard way, and then reminded myself the hard way once or twice. I hope Daz changes that, sooner rather than later. Maybe a Clear All button that clears everything, and then leave the Clear button to only clear items that are not frozen.

    When I created Priorities, I did it in stages, and combining as I went along. Giuseppe eating was the last character I worked on, and I used dForce on his shirt and jeans, using the timeline starting Giuseppe in a semi-repose floating position so the shirt would drape behind his legs. When I merged that file with the master scene, it brought him in at Frame 0. At least the sim wasn't affected and all I had to do was move the timeline to Frame 60, but it would be really great to have a one button solution to freeze both the simulation and final pose. It could be a real pain to merge multiple files each with a one of more dForced items. Maybe Daz will figure something like that out by version 2...

    For something like that, you should be able to export the draping frame that you want to use as a .obj file, then load it in as a morph target on the clothing item in your main scene.

    I know. But I'd like a dForce solution. Not everybody knows how to create morphs for the clothing. A good skill to have, but a lot of extra work for a one off image.

    More Sladen Stories content:
    This is a card from Space Fleet's Collector Card Series.
    In this universe, starship crews are held in the same high regard as celeberties and athletes in our universe.
     

    *edit* Fixed text typo (maybe the version one card will be worth some money one day) lol


    When creating this, I decided to work at trading card dimensions (2.5" x 3.5" 300dpi)
