Used the hair room. I had trouble getting them to lay flat. The "pull down" effect doesn't start until about a 10th of an inch. So I had to manuall select all the hairs and "style" them by dragging them down. I seem to have missed some of them.
Test renders with ray-traced shadows were really slow, so this is without shadows. Some of the hairs in front are being lit by the rim light. This will not happen with shadows enabled, but I'll save that for the final render. It will probably be an all-nighter.
Unfortunately you can only add fuzz one body group at a time. Sigh. Well once I get this group worked out (styling,, length, width, and shader) I'll apply to the other body parts. I only have a couple groups done here.
I seem unable to find a way to save the hair settings. I can save the hair group as a whole, but I want to copy all the hair settings from one group to another, and I can't find a way to do that. Of course I save the material and load it on all the others using VSS. :)
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
