Fitting room challenges
Greetings. Im hoping someone else has perhaps experienced this issue and can provide some guidance. I have been attempting to use the fitting room in PP 2014 to adapt older clothes to the new genesis characters (young teen specifically). I have followed the tutorial, and (while in the fitting room) get decent results, and clothing that appears to have adapted well to the new figure.
However, when I create a new figure from that adapted clothing, and return to the pose room, the clothing becomes "invisible", meaning I can see only the outline of the clothing, and If I render, I see nothing, as if there were no clothing.
If I "spawn a prop" vs create a figure from the fitting room, the prop spawns just fine, however, there are limitations in a prop vs a figure, so Id really rather create a new figure vs a prop.
To test the issue further, I tried the same exercise with Laura YT instead of genesis, and everything worked just fine.

Moved to the Poser Forum.
Have you checked the Normals options? The new figure may have been flipped. Hoever, that should still render the back/inside, unless PP14 handles that differently.
I haven't done much with the FR than experiments, myself, but this seems like an old Poser problem I've encountered.
Try setting the cloth to unimesh. Figure > Skinning Method
Skinning method solved the "invisibility" issue, so thank you! Unfortunately, fitting is off on y-axis by an inch or so when the clothing is conformed. I submitted a support ticket to Daz and they essentially said its Posers fault, and that Smith Micro needs to fix compatibility issues with DSON. A pretty lame answer, however, my work around is to fit the clothes in Daz studio, then export to Poser. Its a pain, but it works....
