Cloth neXtCloth neXt
Houdini? Yeah. It’s like magic, but in Blender.
Professional cloth simulation for Blender, built for real garments, real contact and production geometry.
The result
Real cloth. Real contact.
Real production geometry.
Cloth neXt simulation
Measured on the production sequence
A result.
Not a promise.
Dense layered cloth against a complete animated character, resolved at the scale the shot demanded.

Why Cloth neXt exists
Cloth should follow
the art direction.
Not rewrite it.
Less time negotiating with the simulation. More time shaping the shot.
Character in motion
Every fold.
In character.

The Blender workflow
Four decisions.
Then the bake.
The work stays where your scene already lives.
- Assign the cloth
- Pick a material
- Validate the scene
- Bake the simulation
Character + contact
Detail where the camera sees it.
Use the full character, or create an animation-aware collision cage when production calls for speed.
Dense garments Layered cloth
Animated characters Real contact
Collision cages Editable
75 cloth presets
Pick the fabric.
Keep moving.
Begin from a considered preset. Tune only when the shot asks for it.

What you get
One add-on.
The full workflow.
Cloth is the hero. The systems around it are what make it production-ready.

Not the workaround.
Spend less time debugging cloth. Spend more time art-directing it.
