Makeclothes - error exporting the clothes due to verts with

[pratt]

Hello,

I wanted to use the apron from the clothes gallery on one of my characters, but I needed it to be slightly longer.
So I decided to modify it in Blender with makeclothes.
I imported the human mesh (default female), then imported the apron .obj file.
I made the apron longer, but when I clicked on Make clothes, I got an error.

One or more verts have more than 8 poles.

The new folder with the name of my mesh is created, but it is empty.
Even when I don't change the initial mesh (just import the .obj file and click on Make clothes), I still get the same message.
Is it normal? How can I correct this?

The initial mesh has a lot of faces and vertices, so finding the "bad" ones and changing them would take a long time
By the way, how did the creator of this model manage to create the clothes, if there is a problem with some vertices?
Is there something that I don't understand in the process? It's the first time I try to create clothes.

Thanks!

What method did you use to make it longer?

You might also want to attach the OBJ file so that people can have a look at it.

Thanks for the answer, and sorry to have been so long to answer.

I just pulled down the bottom vertices of the mesh to make the apron longer with Blender, but I don't think the method I used is that important as I can't create clothes from the unmodified original .obj mesh (downloaded from the gallery)

I don't know how to attach a file in a post, but you can find the original .obj here:

If someone knows how I can modify it to create clothes, that would help me a lot!
Thanks!

IIRC the max pole thingy was fixed a year ago in the development branch. There will be a warning if max_pole > 8, but it should work. You could give some feedback...
