ICE Hair

[Helli]

Not sure who did the demo on the softimage site with the hair strands, is it possible to get that ice tree as compound, would love to take a closer look on that one.

its not mine to distribute, but you could make your own by using create strand compound, and then use something like verlet integration to simulate the StrandPositions attribute for the array of point positions for hair

Yea sounds easy but it isn't actually :D

I don't even get it running that i have some sort of strands working together with gravity, while there root is sticking to the surface.

I don't think Im able to create such a compound, sad I thougt those from the beta releases will be in there.

not something they can't support... it isn't a complete hair system anyways, there are a lot of things to still wrap up. its a tech demo to show it can be done.

Just asked, this compound won't be avaiable public at the moment.
