Your clothing should now animate, and the UVs should stay the same. If you can not export/import MDD in Blender, make sure you activate NewTek MDD plugin in Preferences - Addons. I will try to figure out how to make this work with allembic format, but using MDD should be fine, though you will probably have to rotate your mesh. _____ CHAPTERS: 0:30 Exporting the Animation (updated Mixamo workflow) 02:43 Reusing the Garment 03:54 Cloth Simulation 04:21 Pinning the Cloth 05:25 Cloth Animation 05:48 Exporting the Cloth animation to Blender _____ LINKS: www.cgboost.com www.heroesofbronze.com www.marvelousdesigner.com The Witness Breakdown: https://youtu.be/IqhXDb69wl4 #b3d #marvelousdesigner #animation
