CLO User Summit 2024: Munich 🥨

<p>Okay this plugin has been amazing for my workflow with CLO3D and Unreal Engine 5, however its been months now and we can only use DirectX11 to get it working with <strong>Lumen illumination</strong>.<br><br><strong>Please please please</strong> someone needs to address this, update your plugin so we can use DirectX12 which is <strong>WAY</strong> better for rendering and illumination. <br>Dx11 is outdated and doesn't work well with new stuff coming to Unreal Engine 5. <br><br>If somebody knows why the plugin still hasn't been updated I'd like to know, it might help me finding workarounds. <br>I'll be looking for some technical answer, thank u all. <br><br></p><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202501/c998ae78c0fc4ca9851cc78e573fe164/images/4da813a4d4424f1481ac97b871d96d91179170-1537541164.png" class="custom-image hidden-thumbnail" data-id="4da813a4d4424f1481ac97b871d96d91" data-width="400" data-height="400"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202501/c998ae78c0fc4ca9851cc78e573fe164/images/fe7832f18d174123be692586a0e55b51028240012f1a46baaee843feead3ee75.png" class="custom-image hidden-thumbnail" data-id="fe7832f18d174123be692586a0e55b51" data-width="1920" data-height="1080">

I picked up Marvelous Designer back in 2014-ish when I was in college. I started using Marvelous Designer as a reference for painting more believable clothing folds for illustrations, and that’s essentially how I use it now on Civilization.</p><p></p><h1 style="text-align: left"><strong>Civilization 7 features a stylized look. What led you to incorporate Marvelous Designer into your workflow, and how did it support the artistic direction?</strong></h1><p style="text-align: left"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202506/0c35626a8bb045d9913382c279c8ce43/images/bd2095716f384fda8836991994d459c6Copy%20of%20XerxesLP_Thumb.jpg" alt="bd2095716f384fda8836991994d459c6" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="bd2095716f384fda8836991994d459c6" data-width="1000" data-height="1000">Civ 7’s aesthetic is dark and moody, and our art director had tons of chiaroscuro paintings for us to reference early in production. Baroque and Renaissance era painters are masters of clothing folds (amongst many other things), and so I once again turned to Marvelous Designer to serve as my reference. Those old masters of course hired models to pose for days while they painted, later painters like Norman Rockwell would use photo reference of hired models for the same effect. For my purposes, I see Marvelous Designer as an evolution on that, allowing me to dress and pose characters which then inform my illustrations.</p><p style="text-align: left"></p><h1 style="text-align: left"><strong>Workflow &amp; Tools – Could you walk us through the key tools and software you used throughout the project?</strong></h1><p style="text-align: left">The first step often happens in Blender where I’m blocking out loose composition ideas with simple geometry. From there I’ll use Daz for more articulated and detailed characters, and put those characters in Marvelous Designer for cloth simulation. Then it’s back to Blender for lights &amp; materials, and lastly is Photoshop for making brushy paint strokes.</p><p style="text-align: left"></p><h1 style="text-align: left"><strong>Can you share some standout moments where Marvelous Designer played a crucial role in creating iconic scenes or characters?</strong></h1><p style="text-align: left"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202506/0c35626a8bb045d9913382c279c8ce43/images/c99c92dc2fe448bba83c11e3aaf6251aCopy%20of%20FranceLP.jpg" alt="c99c92dc2fe448bba83c11e3aaf6251a" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="c99c92dc2fe448bba83c11e3aaf6251a" data-width="5040" data-height="2160"><em>1) final painting</em><br></p><p style="text-align: left">The French layer painting for Civ 7 was one of my favorite use cases for Marvelous. The focal point is a woman in a dress hoisting a flag in really dramatic lighting, which would have been hard to paint from scratch without 3D. The great thing about Marvelous is when you’re able to re-use and tweak older assets for new projects, in this case I already made 90% of the stuff I needed, which saved a lot of time.</p><p style="text-align: left"></p><p style="text-align: left"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202506/0c35626a8bb045d9913382c279c8ce43/images/c98c161f97374a2083f7e7b5eee0bd87Copy%20of%20FranceLP_Process.jpg" alt="c98c161f97374a2083f7e7b5eee0bd87" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="c98c161f97374a2083f7e7b5eee0bd87" data-width="5040" data-height="2160"><em>2) underpainting made using the 3D as a reference</em></p><p style="text-align: left"></p><p style="text-align: left"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202506/0c35626a8bb045d9913382c279c8ce43/images/2896955048b4439482a53ee5c208dd8eCopy%20of%20FranceLP_Process2.jpg" alt="2896955048b4439482a53ee5c208dd8e" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="2896955048b4439482a53ee5c208dd8e" data-width="5040" data-height="2160"><em>3) raw render from Blender using Marvelous Designer and Daz for the figures</em><br></p><p style="text-align: left">The Xerxes illustration was a similar scenario, with tons of robed figures right up in front of the camera.
