MagicaCloth2 — Advanced Cloth Simulation for Unity DOTS

MagicaCloth2 — Advanced Cloth Simulation for Unity DOTS

MagicaCloth2 is a high-performance cloth simulation system built for Unity DOTS (Data-Oriented Technology Stack). It supports both Transform-based and Mesh-based workflows, making it a powerful successor to the original MagicaCloth.

With MagicaCloth2, you can create realistic cloth physics and dynamic secondary motion for characters — from hair and skirts to accessories and more.

🔧 Key Features

• ⚡ Powered by Unity DOTS for ultra-fast cloth simulation
• 🎮 Works on all major platforms (except WebGL and VisionOS)
• 🔁 Supports both Transform and Mesh components
• 🧠 Realistic physics with hybrid 2.5D behavior
• 🎨 Compatible with all render pipelines: Built-in, URP, HDRP
• 🧩 No custom shaders required — works with any shader
• 🖱️ Simple and intuitive setup interface
• ⏱️ Time control (slow motion, pause)
• 💥 Advanced collision system:
  • Point & Edge collision
  • Self-collision & mutual collision
  • Backstop (penetration prevention)
• 🧬 Normal adjustment tools
• 🔄 Full runtime support
• 📏 Supports uniform scaling (limited negative scaling support)
• 📦 Includes full source code

🚀 What’s New in Version 2

MagicaCloth2 introduces major improvements over version 1.x:

• ❌ Removed pre-build step (no more "Create" button)
• 🧹 Simplified architecture (single integrated component)
• 🧠 Optimized performance and parameters
• 🎨 Improved vertex painting system
• 🖼️ Texture-based vertex painting support
• 🗑️ Removed unnecessary managers and deformers
• 📦 No sub-assets stored in prefabs

⚠️ Note: Not compatible with MagicaCloth Ver1.x

🎨 Render Pipeline Compatibility

MagicaCloth2 works seamlessly across all Unity render pipelines:

✔ Fully independent from rendering pipeline
✔ Works with any shader
