Hello there!
I just converted a dress and i'm having problems with the weights.
I mean, the dress moves correctly with the sim but the leg parts are stretching out a little bit and I can't figure out, how I can optimize the weights so it will move correctly.

Also tried to use some of the game dresses as a reference, transfered the weights from them to my mesh but the result was the same.

Providing blend and package as always
blend: simfil.es/638959/
packagefile: simfil.es/638958/

Thanks in advance

Hi! I'm seeing the package first and right out the bat i can tell you that you cloned the wrong item. You're working with a full outfit, that's what you should clone instead of a nude top. Clone the lingerie base game outfit, export the mesh and use that as reference. I suggest re doing all weights (delete all bones beforehand) and uv_1 from your mesh accordingly.

Also, i suggest you bake your own texture to add detail and depth to your mesh since the texture looks quite flat. It's a nice dress so it'd make it look very pretty. Please read THIS TUTORIAL and THIS ONE for shadow baking, just as important.

I always thought I'd be better cloning the nude top/bottom instead of the lingerie ones. I'll try that out, thank you!!
