Thanks man!

[@AleRender]

thanks for the tutorial . A question that I always have when I see it: how to put that background that you see in the intro

[@polyjam.studio]

The background is just a L shape with a texture :)

[@IcyLucario]

1: Very helpful, thank you. 2: I don't know if you check your older videos, but I have a question: If you apply a lot of gravity to the hair, how can you prevent it from clipping into the mesh/skeleton it's supposed to be covering? For example, a ball covered in hair and rolling. The top hair will sink into the ball.

[@andrewgiovannini6613]

Ball has to be skeletal mesh and then you have to create a groom binding for the ball and apply it with the groom.

how to add another sphere in the event graph blueprint to collide with groom ?

[@polyjam.studio]

Unfortunately, I didn't find any answer...try to merge the two spheres together, or export them as alembic

[@aaronpaglinawan4912]

Can you do rug ? Please include the modelling too haha. Thank you

[@polyjam.studio]

Hey! You can create a rug in any 3d program or download one; there are tons online :) Remember to make the hair. Use references to achieve the look you need :)

[@aaronpaglinawan4912]

@@polyjam.studio Thank you so much. I just want to ask. When I applied a texture with hair attribute node, the texture appears as plain white. do you know what's the problem with this ? Thank you so much!

[@polyjam.studio]

@@aaronpaglinawan4912 make sure that you have properly exported the hair along with its UV map. Check my previous tutorial, I talked about that :)

[@HighlightRiel]

Same thing for unreal 5.4?

[@polyjam.studio]

I hope so. I didn't try 5.4 yet
