Joren Kandel has a quick look solving some issues that may arise when using C4D cloth. If you have a cloth simulation set up in another scene that you like and want to drop into to a new scene, you might find the C4D cloth object behaving strangely- especially when you move it to a new position.
This can all be alleviated by caching the simulation, which will essentially bake the animation into the objects vertices. This will allow you to freely position the C4D cloth object without any worry. Check out the post for Cloth Tag and Moving Cloth Element in C4d here.
