Excuse me to reply so late.

I just want to give a precision concerning this issue.

The hair assitant works easily if the hair has a "cap" or a "base" and other names corresponding the a cap. Some hair have no cap and the vertices selection for the attachment on the head is really a problem.

The strand based hair have the same issue.

The current method to attach vertices to the head of the character when the hair has no cap is :

• Import the character.
• Import the hair without the assistant. This selection must be without any rigidification to accelerate the importation.
• Use the old method to select the vertices on the hair (select the vertices on the head of the character and transfer this selection to the hair).
• Copy the current selection to the first memory by pressing the M+ button. Eventually press before on the "MC" button to clear the first memory.
• Close VWD.
• ReOpen VWD.
• Import the character.
• Import the hair with the assistant.
• Apply the settings for the behaviours of the hair.
• Copy the recorded vertices selection on the hair by pressing the Ctrl + MR button. When you press on Ctrl, the "MR" button changes its caption which becomes "Fic". The selection is visible on the hair.
• Apply the selection to record the vertices which will be used for the hair attachment.
• You can press to "Simulate" to start the simulation.

This method is not comfortable but it has the advantage to work fine. I will modify the program to simplify this method to make this selection more friendly.

I hope my explanations are clear enough.
