Animating long clothing like skirts is extremely tricky in Cartoon Animator. In this video I show you my best method for making, rigging, and animating a long skirt on a character. Through the use of Cartoon Animator 5's spring bones it is possible to make a skirt that animates itself as the character moves. Note that this method does not hold up if your character is running with big strides but you may be able to use the concepts to come up with your own solution (and if you do please share them because I experimented a lot with so many different options to arrive at this long skirt rig).
