Let me get this straight. Are you saying. on Frame 30 after the clothing has draped. I can Save that last frame, and then delete all the frames before frame 30?

If this is so. What I do a lotof the time is Contenue from that last frame on to add another person who will be talking, or the animation clip is running longer than I like to deal with.
I guess if that I had just explained is true, then I could move that last frame I had saved, and move it to frame 30, and redrape from 1-30 again then animate from there.
