The cloth effect is archieved using a normal map. I created the normal using the nvidia normal map tools and a basic cloth texture I created.

I really would love to pose him, but I exported him with the default skeleton and its very hard to archieve cool poses using it. Is there any way to switch the skeleton without much hassle?
Some time ago I added the BEPU inverse kinematics system to the default skeleton, but if I just append that skeleton and use it as armature modifier the mesh does not deform. I thought, since the names of the vertex groups are the same, that it should be easy to reuse my BEPUik skeleton on any makehuman character... :(

Only IK rig I have any experience with is MHX. But replacing an existing rig with MHX post-hoc will probably not be trivial.

It would probably be faster to make a completely new export and redo the changes you've made on the mesh.

Okay... I solved the problem by creating a proxy mesh from my spiderman model and using it to export a mesh with a different rigtype. It's also quite handy to quickly adjust body features...

Completely awesome! :)

Indeed bringing a completed model back in MakeHuman is very cool. I personally have done the same with scans of real people, being able to modify their body and change things like hair and clothes afterward. It's all pretty cool :)

Dope. I try to make Spidey myself but couldn't do the boot & the mask part. How you manage to make the toes look like socks & flatten out the ears on the mask?

Hi, I deleted them in blender and remodelled both poly by poly.

Using makehuman that way makes it a powerful tool to "semi-autorig" characters to the available makehuman rigs. Havent tried out characters wich arent based on the makehuman basemesh yet.
