Telling Fit controllers a fake cloth name?

Hi,

this is a bit confusing to understand first (from thread name), but its easy.

There are bra's like a  skirt, like this:

it is just hanging over it, so I would like to move it like a skirt (I used at the end just Dforce and it moved around).

Sometimes are sliders hidden, because the FitControllers thinks it is that kind of clothes how it got registered like "underpants", but it is maybe a skirt.

Is there a way to define it new, so i can say a normal jeans is a skirt?

Also common for leinen cloth, the software assume a G8M does not wear a skirt.

At a G8F:

At a G8M:

But this are in the end "skirts".

 

If I use the "show hidden" function, they arent displayed.

Any idea?

(maybe I can copy files from this https://www.daz3d.com/fit-control-add-on-for-genesis-3--8-female into the male edition? because its just the addon?)

    I think you want to add posing handles, extra bones that will move the fabric. You can do that with the Joint Editor tool (create new child bone from the right-click Edit menu and set the centre point) and Geometry Editor/Node Weightmap Brush tools (set up selections and fill/paint the weights for the new bones). You could set up an example with fairly extensive hanging sections, then use that as the source figure for the Transfer Utility - you can also set such an item up as a template, though as I recall that still requires some manual  editing of fles and I'm not sure where there is a guide.

    Fit Control, as far as I know, does not base the accessible controllers on the name of the item, or even its listed type (which would be far too problematic).

    If the controllers are not applied to a clothing item, the controller does not affect that area of the body (which is how morph transfer works in DS). Yes, the bra may be loose fabric, but it is not in the hip/leg area that Fit Control's skirt controllers are created to affect, so that is why Fit Control does not see it as a skirt.

    Uff... Are there maybe video tutorials who explain this ? I guess... I'm not the first who wanna add seperate controllers? :D

    So this is exactly the type of thing I would like to see in a proper tutorial with screenshots. I never knew this was even possible in DS! Thanks Richard for this info, but it still feels a bit vague and would love a step by step tutorial with screenshots...
