Cloth FX 1.1 for FL 2027 (PES 2021 + Sider 7)
Shirts and shorts move, fold, and flutter like real fabric when players run, turn, jump, and celebrate.
⚡Optimized FPS
In my tests, the game held 100 FPS with Cloth FX on. The cloth costs about 1 ms per frame, and the simulation runs on its own worker threads.
• Players the game draws at full detail always get cloth
• Close players still keep their cloth when the game drops them to low detail early (corner kicks, keeper holding the ball)
• Far-away players use the game's normal kit, so you don't waste FPS on cloth you can't see
• The cloth distance adjusts for camera zoom, so zoomed-in replay and cut-scene close-ups keep their cloth
👍New in 1.1
- Optimized FPS: cloth goes where you can see it (above)
- Rain fix: outfield shirts no longer freeze when players wear undershirts
- Wind fix: the lower shorts and the lower back of the shirt no longer split from the rest of the kit. The seams now move and shade as one fabric
- New default preset: a light 3 m/s breeze, a relaxed neckline, and smoother shorts
👍New in 1.0 (first FL 2027 release, everything from Cloth FX for FL 2026 plus)
- Collar fixed: no more dark crack opening between the collar and the shirt in the wind (edit mode, menus, line-ups)
- Smooth wind: the fabric keeps the same natural flutter all session, no more shaking or vibrating after a few minutes
- Sharper kits in motion: logos and collar edges smear less with the game's anti-aliasing
📄Features
- Works on all stock kit models: normal, tight, and tucked shirts, and all shorts

- Collar and sleeves move with the shirt; the chest badge moves with it too

- Settings in the Sider overlay: swing, bounce, gravity, neck, wind, shorts fit, and more
- Cloth distance option to save CPU on far players
