Progress(?)
🕑 Added 2018-02-09 06:56:06 +0000 UTC I sit before you a broken man.The last fifth of the animation was causing terrible problems with Maria's pants sim. I stopped the sim and made changes.. Resuming the sim from a hundred frames earlier showed a bit of improvement. But still went south at the end. I ended up retooling the sim 4 times and still nothing fully kept it from spazzing out at the end (even though it got a bit better each time).
Today I tried what I thought would be the "nuclear option." I added nulls that follow her waist line and used the "nail" feature to make points on her pants follow the nails. These are non-negotiable.. They HAVE to follow the nails and this will force compliance.
Unfortunately when I tried resuming the last segment of the animation, the points assigned to these nails were several feet away from where Maria was standing. WHY?!!?
So, with shaky hands, I wanted to see what would happen if I started the sim from frame 0. So far no problems and the nails are not skewed away. (Sigh) I'm so sorry. I though for sure the pants would be simpler than the shirt. So this is going to add another day or two of delay. :/ I'm so sorry. This is one of those things where a beautiful masterpiece of the Mona Lisa could be completely ruined by one clown nose.
