Heh.Hi There.
Quick question.. i hope someone can help me.Is it possible to use a heightmap with xsi2.0's Hair so that the heigtmap defines the length of the hair folicles?
thanks.
yes.....if you apply a weight map to the hair substrate (geometry it was grown from) select the hair, press the transfer map button,you can then connect the map to the desired property.
that make sence?
no.. i still cant figure out how to connect the map to the cutmap
err... just download the hair video on softimage's site, they show you how to do it...
have you transfered the weightmap to the hair?if so its just a matter of clicking the little green icon to the right of the cutmap, choosing connect, then in an explorer view select the weightmap under the hairs clusters.
easy money!
sigh.
yeah.. im still not very familiar with weightmaps, what they do and how they work. I think that's why im having trouble.. i heard you can do it with a texture map just as well.. but i havent been very sucessful at that either.
