Dforce Wind Node and Crashing

MelissaGT

Hi there,

I'm trying to simulate a scene that involves the follwing cloak on a G8 figure - 

https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-ssc-knight-cloak-for-genesis-3-and-8

It will simulate fine alone. It will simulate fine with a wind node set to blow back or away from the G8 figure. However, my ultimate goal is to get the cape to blow to the side and forward, so that it billows up against her leg. Every single time I try this, the simulation will either error or DAZ will crash to desktop completely. It happens as soon as the cloth hits the body/armor. Is this something that cannot be done? I've tried using the default dForce settings that come with the cloak, and I've also tried using the various options here - https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-master-cloth-simulation-presets (including turning off self-collision).

My system specs should allow for me to do pretty much whatever I want, so that shouldn't be the problem (AMD Ryzen 7 1800X w/ EVGA GTX 1080TI FTW3 and 32GB Corsair Vengeance 3200 RAM)
