Thinking this will be a common topic as we learn PopcornFX, thought creating a thread dedicated to particle hair tips and tutorials would be helpful.

Hate to start it of with questions but..

1. How would one go about attaching fur emitter in Popcorn effects to a characters head?

2. Any tips on shaping and coloring would also be great.


Thanks and Happy Holidays..

Many of the PopFX particles work differently then the old particles. The fur particle being one of them. You do not attach the particle to the head, but instead set its target to the head. I believe it can use a mask to isolate to specific areas.

The particle emitter needs only be in the scene for the process.

Thank you, Rampa - could not have been simpler! ~V~
