The TRUTH :-D

Dude, this is so awesome! Clear and straight to the point, this helped me so much. Thanks man!

Just got Marvelous Designer last weekend. I'm still learning how to use the program with ZBrush & Daz Studio, but you taught me about the elastic feature & I thank you greatly for that.I am at work now, but I will be playing when I get home. Thanks a ton & great job!

Awasome.... you don't believe how much struggle for this type & Quality of tutorial.. really really awasome...

This is a really great introduction to Marvelous Designer. Thanks a lot for your video!

Purchased your awesome Spartan Warrior course and that's exactly what I need to complete the model. Hope there are more tutorials to come from you!

Aaaaa, I have bunch of motivation to make animation just by watching this video! This get me out of my art block. Thank you for introducing this wonderful software for free

I've watched several intros to MD. This was quite good. Lots of great info packed In short video. Thanks

This is really amazing! I love this software!

I am glad i found you today. You are my new teacher and mentor. Thank you so much for this.

this program is MAGIC!!!

Thanks for the tuto! Really easy introduction to marvelous and basic workflow betwen it and blender. Now I have a notion to start. Thanks so much.

Dont forget, you can change the layer properties (in the property editor) to ensure the fabric stays on top when you have multiple pieces on top of one another. This way the highest layer stays on top while the lower layers stay at the bottom. Also if youre having trouble with normals remember that the dark side is the flipped normal side while the lighter side is the correct side; this can be changed in any 3d program so it shouldnt be a problem unless you have multiple pieces... Nice tut BTW, Martin!

Martin your tutorial is amazing! A fellow RTW enojyer and modder here. This will help me a lot with assets creation, particularly clothes which has been a pain to create for me having just started in the 3d world.

This was really helpful! Thank youu!!!

Good video, especially for the workflow aspects, thank you Martin. For those wondering, the reason the back half of the Chiton shows as grey after Martin sews the pieces together is because around 8:50 when moving the copied piece to the back of the figure in the 3D viewport, you need to flip it horizontally (via right-click menu) so that the "normal" side is facing outward away from the body. Sidenote: I agree that the world coordinate setting for the gizmo is much easier to dive into BUT i wouldn't go so far as to call the screen coordinate setting "unbelievably stupid", Martin. It's just a different approach wherein you rotate your view on the figure until it's aligned with how you want to move the selected piece and can in fact be handy sometimes believe it or not!

Just what I needed :)

Lovely content bro!! cheers!!

One piece of information missing here is that you should flip the back part of the pattern. The dark area should always be facing the avatar. Ctrl + G to flip the normals.

Yes, thank you for the note, if you want your normals to be OK right after export to Blender, this is the solution! I've gotten somewhat used to my solution, since I always recalculate the normals in Blender afterwards :-) My bad, should have mentioned that!

Hello, thank you so much for these videos, they are really amazing and easy to follow even for starters. I have a doubt though, so maybe you can help. In this workflow you decide the animation first, then in blender you add the T pose to it and export the character into MD, you make the clothes and at the end you check the animation and pose your character with the clothes on while still in MD, then you export everything back into blender. If instead you import a T posing character in MD, make the clothes, export everything into blender and after all of this you upload the dressed character in Mixamo to select the animation.. will the clothes glitch somehow? Would this be a bad workflow? Thanks a lot again for the great videos!

20:03 that's actually pretty cool, *creativity by accident.*

Awesome

nice!

Martin, any advise or tip to optimize the models and garments to add into a 3D scene? I need a crowd in my scene... Thank you!

Good tutorial , for all those following there is a small mistake with the normals the white should be facing out and the grey facing in so rotate the back one 180.

Hello! Combination of the two, though I am still figuring out the best way to export cloth animation from Marvelous ;-)

This is helpful, will try at some point! Can I ask a bit of help? I'm new to Marvelous Designer and I wanted to do as simple poncho for a fantasy character (already in pose because it is for a picture and no need for sleeves or anything), but the fabric just doesn't drape on the model, like the seams are holding it up or the fabric itself is way too stiff. I have tried to tweak the fabric properties but it does next to nothing. What could I do to make the fabric drape? Thank you!

finally my fashion degree has a use

really want to know about clothing......subscribed...:), thankyou

Very nice. But aren't you suppose to rotate the back piece 180 degrees so that you get the outside of the fabric pointing out? That's what they did in the official tutorials.

Can this method be used for long animations, or only animations of a few seconds like he does?

During my MD exports I can only weld the pieces in Thin mode. Leaving me with paper thin odd looking clothing. If I export in thick mode/unwelded I get that thickness look, but on extreme poses my sewn seams split apart because they aren't welded. What is the work around for this? Thanks!

Marvelous Designer sounds exactly like what I'm looking for. But does it have texture tools? To give the clothes color before exporting.

I'm having trouble getting the same results. My rectangle tool doesn't seem to have as much resolution as yours to start -- my curves are sharp and when I sew I don't have many connecting sewing lines, so my simulation looks super blocky. Any help would be appreciated.

It depends on model's scale. First of all, you have to check your models's scale in Blender, applying scale (Ctrl+A - scale) to all the body parts but armature. There is an error in the tutorial when Martin (thanks for your tutorial) says you don't have to change the import parameters. Indeed, you have to be sure of mark the cms. option. Hope this helped you!

so when i import it to MD the animation is only a morph from T pose to the final pose of the animation and the transformation happens to (moves from a to b) but all the running moves inbetween dont happen. D: i hate working with rigs and animations but i love animation. edit: nah man i gave up on this. maybe something has changed since you made the tut. i tried everything and did the exact same thing 5-6x as you showed but not fbx, nor alembic worked. think i will have to make clothes for a running character and out them on with a lot of pulling around. *EDIT* YEAH I GOT IT! when exporting the FBX i unchecked "NLA Strips" and Force Start/End KEying" under Bake Animation.
