Using Edit Guides on top of hair from mesh strips

Hi,

I'm not a big Ornatrix user, so feeling my way through best options - currently using hair from mesh strips to style the hair (doll's hair), using symmetry and then edit guides to give it a style.

It works in the viewport, but the render ignores the brushing done in the edit guide?

Not sure if I'm missing a particular step? (Max 2020 Ornatrix v6)

Thanks,

Steve

Hello,

To use Edit Guides on top of Hair From Mesh Strips you have to increase the viewport hair count to 100%. This happens because if viewport count and render count are different Ornatrix will generate new strands at render time, this new strands will not be affected by the changes that you did in Edit Guides. This is by design but it will change in the next major version.
