Wow! Although this exhibits slightly the unfortunate 'rubbery' look of most CG cloths
I've
seen, I actually forgot for a moment that I was looking at CG cloth, and was just
enjoying the
way it was undulating and slipping along the floor.

Do you know what's causing the rubberiness, and do you think you'll be able to
overcome it? I
think you have almost achieved realistic cloth.

Is this in Pov SDL? I hope you will be sharing your code/software at some stage.

All the best,

Andy Cocker
