Hairtrix

[Adam H. Stewart]

I am terrible problems getting Hair to work with any consistency in 3dsmax 9 64bit. I don't think any of the problems new - jus the same old stabitility and intergration issues.
Has anybody used Hairtrix ? If so what are you thoughts ?

Thanks as always for you're help.

Might be better to contact Ivan and/or Marcel directly to work on resolving these issues.

Best regards,

Ivan and Marcel ?

Do they work at Discreet ?

It would be great if I could get these issues sorted out, some of them are the weirdests sorts of bugs that it could be just me missing a setting, like when I render hair has a mr primitive the hair for some reason cuts through the alpha channel of the object below - weird !

Thanks as always for your help.

I don't think so, at least last time I checked Ivan created the original Shag:Hair plugin, while Marcel created Ornatrix; Hairtrix is a merge of both technologies. I can try to put you in touch with Ivan, if you have trouble contacting him or Marcel.

Did you eventually manage to sort out the problems you were having with this?

That was a long time ago - I think what I ended up doing was alot of comping, I always try to do things as little comping passes at first, Jesus I can't believe that was a year ago - I'm getting bloody old !
