This section lists materials that you can create using nCloth and provides significant attribute settings for each material. The attribute values listed in this section are the same attribute values that make up the nCloth Attribute Presets (available from the nCloth Attribute Editor). You can use the materials list as a starting point for your nCloth and then vary the attribute settings to suit your simulation. Some attribute settings, such as Stretch Resistance, may vary depending on the resolution of your input mesh. For example, if you use a high resolution mesh to create silk, a Stretch Resistance higher than the one listed maybe required to obtain the cloth’s properties. All the material presets listed use default values for the Nucleus node attributes, including the following settings:

• Substeps: 3
• Max Collision Iterations: 4
• Space Scale: 1

You will most likely need to edit the Nucleus solver attributes to settings that best suit your simulation. For example, increasing Substeps and Max Collision Iterations from their default settings is usually required, particularly for fast moving nCloth or if the nCloth is a high resolution mesh. Depending on the units used to model the input mesh of your nCloth object, you may also need to set the Nucleus solver Space Scale. For more information about Nucleus solver attributes, see Maya Nucleus solver properties.
