Texture and Hair

Hey Guys!

We are LOVING Vray5! Sooo thankful for this A-MAZING render engine!

I have a project that really needs Hair with a texture. It works with noise, but I have a client specific project needing the hair to be driven by a texture map. Do you guys have a timeline for this? Or will I need to render this in 3.7?

Thanks,
Brian

Hey @Brian3D ,
I’ve raised the priority for this one. Currently the bug is only when the VRayHairNext material tag projection is set to UVW mapping. It should work fine with the other projection types, and you can use them if it works for you as a workaround. I’ll also ask the devs if they can give me a time frame for fixing this and will update the post.

@shaio Thanks so much! It would be great if it’d work with UV’s, but thanks to your tip about it not working with UV, I was able to render the product for the client in 5!

It will be fixed with higher priority.
