I have made a cloth with only a few vertices to act as a banner in my game.

Is it possible to make the cloth bigger, whilst still using the same number of vertices?

What you're looking for is the depth parameter, in the PHY SET CLOTH DIMENSIONS command. This will determine in how many sections the cloth will be divided, based on the calculation (width/depth)+1) and (height/depth)+1 .

Example: PHY SET CLOTH DIMENSIONS 1, 20, 20, 2 will have the same amount of vertices as PHY SET CLOTH DIMENSIONS 1, 10, 10, 1. In both cases these will create a cloth with 11x11 sections and having the same amount of vertices.

Theory is when you know something, but it doesn't work. Practice is when something works, but you don't know why.
Programmers combine theory and practice: Nothing works and they don't know why.
