Having a little problem with simulating this dress.
View attachment 4356303
As you can see, the sofa should clearly not be the problem (lower right frame), and I have tried to get all the body parts away from each other, but it seems that no matter what I do, I can't get it to quit exploding.

Anybody happen to have any ideas on what I might be missing?
She is Genesis 9 and the dress is Morgana Dress from
I have encountered the same issue; I've been unable to solve it to eager to see what others say as I'm probably doing the same thing wrong.

Looks rotated, either with a D-former or by turning the head bone, not on the model, but specifically on the hair model. (Probably a D-former, I can see where it "turns" a bit). You'd probably also want to add a smoothing modifier if you do either of these, to prevent clipping.

Lots of ways to customize assets if you get creative :)
Nah, people are inherently lazy. There's no reason to go through that much trouble to change a part location. It's probably a different hairstyle, possibly by the same author as Delphi though, I would search the Daz3D website for hairstyles by the same author to start.

This is why I generally avoid dforce. I have used it for the odd thing, but I mostly prefer to manually pose.
Generally how I have to proceed as well; lots of fine-tuning with mesh grabber too; though most of the posts on here seem to be using it successfully. I still have many tutorials I'm aiming to watch to learn.

I have tried both ways - start from memorized (base) pose -> timeline and just timeline without start from mem...
Same result, just not quite so dramatic without base pose

Also tried changing the stiffness - same result

Turned off everything I could (all the way down to the EYELASHES!) and still same result.

I do thank you all for the suggestions.

Maybe I just need to try a different dress. Oh well.
Yeah, in that case the only other thing I can think of is self collisions or collisions in general maybe? That's unfortunate, but there are plenty of red dresses out there. Hopefully those work better for you.

Hi, guys. My lashes issue is still not fixed. I followed your steps: proper file location but the issue lies it's missing the lashes the moment I load the model: both Victoria and Asha (the model I wish to render). Help.

I didn't follow your previous Problems... but I have one question:
Do you go and install your downloaded DAZ Studio Models through the "DAZ Install Manager" or put everything in your "My DAZ 3D Library" User Folder? All "IM00xxxxxx.zip" Files should be installed through the DAZ Install Manager! Additional "Template" Files must be put manually in your User Files Folder - it should already contain a "Templates" Folder.
Only Downloaded Files without the "IMxxxxxxx.zip" Files must be all put manually in your My DAZ 3D Library Folder.
If you fail to put the necessary Files in the correct Folder, you'll end up with a mess you seem to have with your DAZ Studio and missing/failed loaded Files for Models.
Also it can be confusing because DAZ stores Files in different locations on your Drive... I put everything I need to install manually in my "C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library" Folder.
My guess is, if you mix up DAZ Files into to many different Folder, it fill mess up your loading up of DAZ Studio and you get these kind of errors you're facing.

EDIT:
Oh, I forgot - the location for the DAZ Install Manager .zip files should be in "C:\Users\Public\Documents\DAZ 3D\InstallManager\Downloads" - there put your "IM000xxxxxxx.zip files in and run the DAZ Install Manager.
