New Features Since Launch

Add Collar : Collars in Blender can be tricky due to their stiffness. With DivineCut you can now add a Collar onto your generated top with a single click

Add Hoodie : DivineCut lets you add a hoodie onto your cloth with a single click

Features

1) Cloth Generation

Map the body parts of your character as shown in the video above. After which you can customise the style of the garment : the neck size, sleeve length, and drop length (from a crop-top, to a gown)

For Trousers, you can set the width of the thighs and the ankles.

2) Painting Features

DivineCut comes with painting tools which allow you style the shape and behaviour of the cloth.

a. Shrinkwrap : Paint which parts of the cloth should shrinkwrap onto your character

b. Pinning : Paint which parts should bind to your character. They will be pinned onto the character and will not be simulated. This is great for the cuffs of the sleeve, the waist, or any other part which you want pinned onto your character during simulation

c. Bloat : Paint which parts of the cloth you want to expand or shrink.

d. Smooth : After shrinkwrapping for instance, some parts of the mesh may not be so smooth (such as the collar and armpit region). Paint wherever you would like to smoothen.

e. Pressure : Paint pressure onto your cloth. Great for areas you will like to retain structure and not fall to gravity

3) Design Features

DivineCut is launching with a few design features to help stylise your cloth even further

a. Bind : Clicking Bind on your cloth will bind the cloth to your character using the 'Pinning' group. So you can add vertices to this group or paint wherever you would like to bind.

b. Bind : Clicking Bind on any other object will bind it to your cloth automatically. This is great for Buttons, Zips, Lapels, Pockets, Thread, and any other mesh you would like to stick on

c. Zips (Improved significantly in v1.0.4 but still classed Experimental) : This will create a zip on the selected edges of your mesh

d. Puff : This will create a puffer on the selected faces of your cloth. This is great for making puffer jackets.

e. Add Collar (NEW) : This will add a special collar to your generated top.

f. Add Hoodie (NEW) : This will add a hoodie to your generated top.

4) Demo File

You can use the demo file to test out your animation. This comes with a character rig (from Lollipop Characters) and a collection of buttons and zipper objects. You can append this collection into your file or add the asset library package which will be available in version 1.0.1.

Known Issues

- The zipper function has been improved in v1.0.2 but still requires further improvement. If you have a mirrored object you need to set the scale of the zip to -1 on the x axis if you'd like to flip it to the other side

- Default Puffer pressure may sometimes be too much for a single puffer object so it may appear to explode when simulated. Simply reduce the puffer pressure in cloth settings

- The sleeve sometimes generates as inverted. Simply undo and rotate the shoulder ring to tilt towards the bicept ring a bit more

- Trousers currently ignore waist height. You can simply lift the waist vertices after the trouser is generated if you would like it higher.

- More tutorials are currently in the works
