Once recorded, you can press the same button again to clear the recording and go back into live simulation mode. To record the simulation set the start and end of your current scene timeline to match the part of the simulation you want to record and then press the Record Active Timeline button. The results of the baked simulation will be stored with the scene. This will bake the simulation into the scene allowing backward and forward playback and significantly speeding up the evaluation of the operator. Once you have tailored the simulation to your liking you can record the results. Parameters like Dampening and Gravity affect the forces which act on the hair. Other parameters like Density and Particle Size affect the properties of the simulated hair.

Some of these parameters, such as Sub-steps and Iterations, affect the simulator itself. Inside the Attribute Editor you can adjust various simulation parameters. The resulting hair can further be styled using other operators. For example, you can simulate the dynamics on your hair guides and then generate the dense hair from these guides. The Dynamics operator can be added anywhere in the stack and its output will be processed by operators above it. Once the operator is added, play or scrub the scene time line to see the strands moving. To simulate your hair simply add the Dynamics operator to the hair stack on top of your hair or guides. You need a CUDA Compute 3 or newer compatible video card to use dynamics.

Hair can collide with the distribution surface and external collision objects can be added from the scene. Both, short fur and long hair can be simulated with realism and simplicity.Įxternal forces can be specified using Maya's native force fields. Numerous parameters are used to control and style the behavior of hair to your liking. We use a fully GPU-driven solution based on NVidia Flex technology to provide fast results which can be adjusted in real-time inside the viewport. Ornatrix provides a robust solution for simulating hair motion.

Unable to manipulate guides roots using the transformation tools.
