[RELEASED] Magica Cloth

do we have an expected date, I might update to the new unity for this then!

 

Hi, i got a similar problem, could you send the fixed code to me too ^0^

 

Hello.
This quote is about a bug in AddCollider() on 2/26/2021.
And the fix at that time has already been incorporated into the latest v1.12.11.
(To be exact, it was incorporated into v1.9.3.)
So please update to the latest version.

 

Update: 1.12.12

v1.12.12 has been released on the Asset Store!
http://u3d.as/1Hzx

Release Note:
Fixed: Fixed an issue that caused an error with Collections 2.1.x and above packages. If you use Collections2.x, please install the 2.1 or higher package.

Hello. How to integrate Magica Cloth 2 with Unity Multipurpose Avatar (UMA)?

 

Hi.
I'm not familiar with UMA so I can't give you an accurate answer.
However, since it is presumed that the mesh will probably be generated at runtime, I think MagicaCloth should also be created at runtime.
The following documents may help you with this:
https://magicasoft.jp/en/mc2_runtime_build/

However, please note that I will not know if it actually works until I test it.
Also, there is the following dedicated forum for questions about MagicaCloth Ver2.x.

Since this is a forum for Ver1.x, please post Ver2.x to the above forum from next time.

 

Hi,
I am using Unity 2021.3.9f1 and Magica 1.12.12 and I have noticed that RenderMeshDeformer leaks its cloneMesh when the MagicaRenderDeformer GameObject is disabled and its Scene gets unloaded.

I realize OnDestroy is not called on disabled GameObjects and that's why this happens, otherwise MagicaRenderDeformer would dispose its RenderMeshDeformer.

Can you think of a way to elegantly handle this or would I have to look for a custom solution to this?

Thanks!

 

Hello.
My understanding is that calling OnDestroy() is tied to Awake() independently of GameObject deactivation.
In other words, if Awake() is called, OnDestroy() will be called correctly even if the GameObject is disabled afterwards.
MagicaRenderDeformer initializes in Start() and creates CloehMesh, so it will be properly destroyed in any state.
The above behavior can be confirmed by a simple experiment.

However, there may be some oversight.
Any easy steps to reproduce this CloehMesh leak?
I tried various things but could not reproduce.

 

You're probably right with the Awake - OnDestroy relationship. I think in our case we had a disabled Character in the game that somehow initialized its Magica components and then never got enabled which led to the cloneMesh leak.

I fixed it for us by manually disposing the Magica components when their scene gets unloaded.

 

Okay, I understand.
I may have overlooked something in the process.
I would like to investigate this issue.

 

Hello,

Magica Cloth 2 is lovely and we would love to upgrade to it. However, is it possible for Magica Cloth 1 and Magica Cloth 2 to co-exist in the project at the same time? Would there be conflicts between the two? We're creating a VTuber software and do not want to force users to update their models that used Magica Cloth 1 to use Magica Cloth 2, but would like to support Magica Cloth 2-configured models as well.

 

Hello.
Coexistence is possible.
However, there is a negative performance impact as there are two similar systems running.
A powerful desktop PC will do just fine, but be mindful of the load.

 

Thanks for your quick response! If Magica Cloth 1 components are not present in the runtime scene, is there still negative performance impact? Or there is negative performance impact only if Magica Cloth 1 & 2 components are used in the same scene?

 

As long as you only use one, it's fine.
The load increases when using Ver1 and 2 at the same time.
This is because there are two different physics engines running.

 

Hello. Is it possible to generate colliders automatically, so I wouldn't need to adjust them by hand?

 

Is this to automatically generate colliders for the human body shape?
If so, unfortunately it doesn't have that feature.

 

Hello,
I'm having some issues with runtime clothes in my project. I'm using a mesh cloth that I instantiate on runtime the same way it's done in the construction example (https://magicasoft.jp/en/mc2_runtime_build/) with the only difference that I am adding the bones (here just one) in the skinning bones list:


The main issue is that the cape is simulated correctly but does not follow my character's animations (this character is using some IK, I don't know if this can have an impact).


I even tried adding the subsequent bones of my character in the sknning bones list but it only gets worse and the mesh is stretched to the world origin (0,0,0).


Have you got any idea of where I messed things up?

Thanks !

 

Hello.
We apologize for the inconvenience, but this is a support forum for MagicaCloth Ver1.x.
The support forum for Ver2.x is at the following link, so please post here next time.

https://forum.unity.com/threads/released-magicacloth2-hybrid-cloth-simulation.1395865/

The problem is probably bones not being replaced correctly.
This is difficult because many factors come into play.
Therefore, the cause cannot be determined from this image alone.

Can you provide a project where I can reproduce the problem if possible?
