Hi knowledgable ones,

A quick syflex question. I have a character with an old flight hat on
-the ones with the flaps hanging down at the sides, which I need to sim.
The easiest way to go about this was to use Syflex.

I have made the hat a cloth body, tagged the points other than the
flaps and created a nail. The syNailPos null which is created I have
parented under the head jnt of my character to inherit it's local
transforms. I add gravity, run the sim and the flaps sim great, but the
nailed area pushes through my poor fella's head.

Any ideas? I  also tried to pin the same points, but couldn't get it to
work ( I picked the points, then the head itself, hit Constrain>create
Pin,  but no joy). I've been able to find very little documentaion on
this stuff.

Also, would people think this is the way to go, or is there an
alternative (I messed about with XSI's cloth, but didn't have much luck
there either).

Cheers for any help,
Steve
