adding custom template and template content deletes things from my character

i created a shirt and a pants , imported them into cc4 , and created a custom template for each.
everything is working … but now i realized :
when i drag in something from the normal template like hair or a bra , the custom clothes will be removed from my character …in both directions… means :
template removes custom template and also custom template removes template things from char…

both clothings are exported from 3dsmax

now the question: what i am doing wrong ? :smiley: , because i have a custom t-shirt (not 100% shure were it was from) that is not having this problem and is just working

Hi…

To stop clothing being replaced you have to set a separate layer number for each item of clothing. You can do this using Modify > Cloth Layer Settings. For more information the layer settings, please click HERE.

problem solved !
