 heres an initial render and a short clip i made last night after redoing the hair, i recentered  the origin on the skullcap and it still had the same problem with the bake script, so i abandoned the skullcap and created the hair directly on the head(i know this is a no-no) but the results were the same still jumping when baked, perhaps i dont have the latest version of cages script , i dont know...(i was up untill 4:30am)

  anyway i quickly re-created the hair, using an initial drape/bake/morphtool styling/bake/used the hither dial on the camera with backfacing polly's enabled to look inside the model to find and fix any intersections(only a couple easily smoothed to outside the body with the morph tool) rebake again/reposition/double check for penetration/add bvh motion quickly bent arms to cover a prominent breast morph for youtube/simulate using default settings except bend resistance set to 0 and collisions enabled both in hair and body/render....

 overall not so bad other than its still way too lively, the bangs i can just dial back on the dynamics  paramater as theres no real collision issues, but the hair that drapes over the shoulders penetrates if i change the paramaters... so im still in the same basic boat i was in yesterday.... tweak and retest.... i really appreciate you guys offering advice and hope more suggestions are forthcomming... its such a privlage to be part of a community where you can openly share ideas and people are so giving of their time and experience, too bad it doesnt extend more into the 'real world' ...

again and as always ...thank you...

:O)

ps: forgive me my spellcheck isnt working in firefox... :O(

Y'all have a great day.
