Problem

Description:

Hello, I'm new with Ornatrix and I'm having some issues here and there... beg your pardon if is something that has been answered before or a known issue, I tried to research some not so much luck.

Here is one.

Ornatrix 6 ( last version )
When I import an ABC always gets imported as OX object and nothing shows up.  I'm importing a geometry .. nothing related to hair still OX converts it to something?

I wanted to try with 7 beta but the hair of my model exploded once I opened it in 7... had to go back to 6. I will share that too later when I have the time. 

Steps to Reproduce:

got a video of it and attached the alembic too.

Hi,

Ornatrix 6 ( last version )
When I import an ABC always gets imported as OX object and nothing shows up.  I'm importing a geometry .. nothing related to hair still OX converts it to something?

This is happening because Ornatrix Alembic is probably selected as import format in the import dialog. 

Edit: In the video i can see that "Files of Types" is set to "All Formats". Set it to the default Alembic and it will work as expected. 

I wanted to try with 7 beta but the hair of my model exploded once I opened it in 7... had to go back to 6. I will share that too later when I have the time. 

If you send us the scene we can look into it. You can send it to jeordanis. f (at) Ephere. com and add a link to this post.

Sorry couldn't reply earlier.

Changin the Tile type fixed it.

I'll study a bit more about the Ornatrix 7 and prepare a file with the problem thankyou.
I also noticed that brushing the hair was more complicated like if there was some collision object bothering the brush in some angles while in Ornatrix 6 was smoother.
well I'll try to prepare a file with the issue also with a video.

Thank you!
