What I seem to be reading is: there is a direct relationship of mesh type and density to cloth type and settings. Indeed, in order to come up with appropriate settings, or variations on those settings, you must know the mesh type and density and intended cloth type. That is why the bottom of the skirt in my render turned to poo: the mesh wasn't designed to 1. accept those settings and 2. deform to that extreme. This is filling in some extremely important missing pages in the manual. Thank you, aRTBee!!
