Maya
how do you make maya fur collide?

31 Jul 2008I want my little creature to bounce around on the table and his fur to react to the table and move around. The fur is set up already and works nicely as a static thing, but I'm not sure how to make it work with the environment. If anyone can point me in the right direction I'll donate Hype's kidney to charity.

31 Jul 2008there's a way to uyse maya's hair dynamics with fur to give the look of the fur you have but to react the way maya hair does. unfortunately i dont know the details on this but i'm sure you could find a tutorial on it somewhere.

31 Jul 2008So what you need to do, is when you have your fur how you want it, select your character, and create hair for it using the hair module, and instead of outputting the hair as paint effects, output it as curves, then select the hair solver, then the fur node from the outliner, and in the rendering menu set, select in the fur section, and in there you will find a button to connect the hair to the fur. But before you do that, make sure you get teh hair curves working right and colliding with the table and all that good stuff. Then get ready to wait..........
Good luck man!

31 Jul 2008Right on, sounds like a rendering nightmare but at least it's possible. Thanks guys.
