apologies for another post, but is it possible to use dynamic clothing in carrara 8?. I have seen the soft body option in the general/modifier/effect/shader menu section but i cant find a decent explanation on how to use dynamic cloth if it is at all possible.......

Another way is to learn from a ready model, check attachment.

There should be a thread in the old Daz3D forum, but it takes time to track it down...
