Optitex clothing problem

Since DAZ doesn't have any Biblical clothing, I downloaded some Optitex freebies to see if they work. Well, they fit nicely to the figure, but once you pose the figure or move it the clothing stays behind . Anybody knows a solution to this. Is there a tutorial here that can help solve this problem. I really need those Biblical shawls and tunics.

This is Dynamic Clothing, so you need to drape it in a specific way using the Dynamic Clothing tool. The free version which comes with DAZ Studio ought to be sufficient, though there is a "Pro" version.
There is an introductory PDF tutorial on the Optitex site: Your First Drape and Beyond.
You cannot pose the figure after you do the drape, it does not work like conforming clothing.
If you want to start at a particular pose, then change it, you need to use an animated drape with the Dynamic Clothing Control (DCC).
I found this, but there are no images : http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/artzone/pub/software/dynclothbasic/using_dyncloth_basic
Maybe someone else has a better link?
Thank you Cayman and JC for your help, I'll work with your suggestions and report. Have a great day.
