Cloth problems with IK Pole Vector Constraints

[8or]

Hi All,
My cloth won't work when I use PV constraints - is there a workaround for this? Any suggestions? I'm using 4.02

-sure use a hidden object, maybe a sphere or something to constrain to using a mesh constraint then animate the hidden object to move the cloth the way you need? -hope it helps..

option 2:

Have a set of simple collision objects which are constrained to the skeleton. At cloth time, bake out the constraints. The collision geometry is now independent of the IK, so the cloth solver will see it.

Works best if you have a way to unbake the constraints later; via script or whatever.
