Hi @Anonymous

 

I would do this by having joints setup along the page of the book like in this video:

thank you Mr.sean;

it was new thing that I learned in this clip. thanks a lot.

but, I created the book with nCloth, the problem is in gutter of the paper. my pages gutter don't stay like this picture.

my book pages stay in flat shape and it damages the reality of physical shape of paper when a book is open.

I want my pages of book stay like what is in top image. 

gratfully

Hi @Anonymous

 

Ah ok I misunderstood the issue. Have you checked your settings, gravity etc to make sure they aren't set incorrectly and causing this issue?

 

If you watch this quick video you can see that the paper sits normally and animates properly.

 

 

I think if you look at your model and tweak the nCloth settings etc you should be able to get a better result.
