Well you can put them in COMPONENTS that go in clothing. I can't remember which one it's either a Synth Cloth or a Re-enforced fibre panel I think.


So because you have a crate of them you can go ahead and factory the (lets pretend it's synth cloth they go in) you can factory our some synth cloth, or make them by hand. THEN you put the synth cloth in your cloths and bingo you now have enhanced clothing! weeeeeeeee! I can't remember which component contrsictor cloth goes in.


Here's an important thing for you to know. If a peice of clothing requires for example 2 synth cloths and you have 2 that you made from your contrsictor cloths it's a waste to put 2 of them in one shirt or whatever. For some reason they don't seem to stack. So it's better to put the enhances in clothing that just want 1 of something and not 2.


Hope that makes sence.

make a schematic using the C Cloth and RFP.


Add the items to your factory, turn on and wait till done.


Remove the new enhanced RF panels from the factory.


Now, I am also afraid of the bugginess with these delicate and ver expensive cloth... so when I make a form fitting undershirt or a pair of camos, I put the enhanced cloth in LAST, never first and so far has worked every time for me.


Be consistant when making them, so you don't waste the enhanced cloth. I always put the enhanced panel in last


I hope that works for you.

First or last hasn't mattered to me, and when you have both an active biosensor (med treatment) and a stun/mele you can be sure it is impossible to but the BE panel in 'last', as there are 3 involved. What you must do, however, is take the panels out of the crate one at a time before you drop them in the crafting window. This might get fixed (or acknowledged) someday, but I burned through a good 30k of tissues figuring this out the hard way. Others on the forum have also found this. Since I've done that, I am able to make camos that show "+16 injury treatment, +16 wound treatment, +16 stun defense, +4 mele defense"... and they do sell quite well for me.

Also, be aware that there SEEMS to be a cap of 25 per bonus per person. So if someone is getting med treatment from multiple items, they get just as much benefit from two different items with +13 as they do from two items with +16.

Rule of thumb for what you can get to stick: the effects of 1 combat tissue [i.e. stuff that goes in RFP] (even if the slot calls for factory identical, you'll only get the value of one), and 1 noncombat tissue (Synth - this means med treatment and ent healing only at this point from what I've been able to figure out)

Two individual cloth will stack but multiple sets of factory cloth will not. So +25 is possible with modest skirt, lots of wookiee wear, and one or two others if I recall correctly, but not with things that need two sets of factory cloth. I tried this with a crate of +16 cloth. A painful waste

If by stack you mean two +12 cloths don't yield +24, then right, this is correct. I still hardly think this is a "waste" however. When a customer wants a piece of clothing that requires duplicate cloths/RFP's to get the bonus that they want who am I to argue, I just do it and charge them appropriately. I'd rather give them what they want and charge a fair price rather than give then always steering them to a lower-cost alternative (like suggesting we put the bonus in a shirt).


I actually kind of prefer to add bonuses to higher-end kind of clothing to be honest. I think people will be happier with them in the long-run. Tonight I'm hoping to get some time to do some myoflex-enhanced master level items, wohoo!


A customer today requested that I make him what I call a "leopard spec-ops duster" (white with black splotches)with +7 mask scent (best I can do at my BE skill level). I informed him that I'd be happy to do it, and that the duster would cost 10k (2 identical RFP's needed). He grumbled, tried to barter but I held firm telling him that this price was very reasonable. Darn if he didn't come back anhour later or so(no doubt after running a mission or two) practically begging for it. When het got his hands on it he really seemed to love it as well (both in terms of "look" and in terms of having something a little rare), and I felt really good about the transaction. So did I "waste" that extra RFP I put in it? not at all...

Interesting if true. Hmm, sounds like a bug actually, lol, but I will try it. Thanks for the heads-up.

Constrictor cloth doesn't work in synthetic cloth(i've tried it).
Must be reinforced then fibre panels then.

I am a master tailor and trying to figure out how to use constrictor cloth in the synthetic cloth. It does not show up in my inventory slot when i open my crafting kit. Is there something special I have to do? I tried using it from a crate nothing.

There have been a few posts about this all ready... but to put it simply, constrictor cloth goes into reinforced panels, not synthetic cloth. If you want information about enhancements, visit www.swgbio.com.
