I Cant find anywhere that explains dynamics with the ornatrix plugin. I dont want to invest too much time with it until I can see how the dynamics are, any pointers?

[@skulmonkey]

I tried the edit guides operator...it turned red....BUT I CAN'T BRUSH THE HAIR. The hair won't even budge... What am I doing wrong?

[@liuhong2387]

Can you tell me why the products disappear when I click on "Hari From Mesh Strips"?And there are no splines

[@yebutonu]

Me again! Would you have any idea how to bake the actual hairs as a texture in ornatrix for hair cards? I get the mesh-strips pipeline, but not how to generate textures from hairs

[@CGDreamsTutorials]

It's not possible in C4D.

[@yebutonu]

​@@CGDreamsTutorials What about the UV mapping menu item in the Mesh From Strands operator in c4d ornatrix?

[@CGDreamsTutorials]

@@yebutonu The mesh from strands converts hair to geometry. What your after is to project the render of hair to the hair cards. What I do is add a black plane that does not receive shadows, set up some hair on the vertical and have some waves in the hair so it captures some highlights. I render this out from the front at high res and use this as a texture map. I also make sure I render a alpha too. Use these maps in Photoshop to lay out on the cards Uvs and import these textures into C4D, works wonders.

@@CGDreamsTutorials thanks very good point and also makes sense to me!
