[SOLVED] Bumps and breaks in mesh

What color for the vertex paint did you use? for a Top , everything has to be colored with #00FF00 and the bottom has to be #3FFF00. If you only make one part of the body, in your case a skirt. Just color it with #3FFF00 only. The UV_1 Looks ok. So it might be the weights. What did you clone for the weights?

Hi. The denser the topology, the more problems like this you will encounter after transferring data from a low poly maxis reference.
- Clone a similar maxis skirt, export, append, do not remove doubles on it;
- Un-subdivide your skirt and re-unwrap it;
- transfer weights, uv_1 and vertex paint from a maxis reference with Nearest face interpolated. After that, it should behave fine. If not, edit weights manually as explained here

BokchoiJo I will try it, thanks!

What do you mean with ‘delete the leg inside of the skirt’? I used the nude mesh but deleted the parts that weren’t visible, I don’t know why it still shows up. :(

yes, share it please

The seams you're seeing is what happens when you remove doubles on the reference and transfer uv_1 from it. It was like this the first time as well, just appears when you hover over the mesh in CAS
This should not be here

It remained the same because uv_1 did not transfer. The reason for this is hidden and unselectable reference

Also, we close holes to make sure the transparent inner side of the garment is not visible. There is no reason to solidify an area if most of it will be hidden.

The holes should be closed at before weight transfer, this way a vertex in the middle of the bottom will inherit medium weights. If not, you can close the hole without making creating this vertex


- In UV editor enable sync, press B, select uvs of body parts, in 3d view P - Selection to separate them. Never transfer anything to body parts;

- select separated body parts, in Edit mode select everything, Tools - Remove doubles with Merge distance set to 0.0001;

- select the skirt, hover over the side geometry at the top, press L, Delete - Faces;

- disable Limit selection to visible, select a few vertices on that inner geometry, press Ctrl L, delete;

- delete geometry at the bottom as well;
- select everything, Select - Select boundary loops, Mesh - Edges - Mark Sharp;
- press F, then Mesh - Faces - Triangulate;
- Mesh - UV Unwrap - Unwrap, put them somewhere;
- make the reference visible and selectable;
- select your skirt, add data transfer, make sure to set it up just like this, apply;

Nude body parts and skirts are adapted and behave differently from each other, so when they are too close, one will clip into another.


Replace the body part with the one harvested from the reference. Since you transferred all data from that skirt, it should behave exactly as your skirt and clipping should not happen:
- delete the nude body from your skirt;
- append the same exact skirt you used to transfer data;
- delete everything covered by your skirt;
- remove doubles.

As for feet clipping in the skirts, you could try editing weights manually, but it would be a headache. It would be easier to either shorten the skirt or just move it further away from feet in this area.
