Is there a way to set the width of the cloth strips when using the "OX Mesh drom strands" modifier? I would really like to be able to make the strands much thinner in order to more closely simulate hair strands.
Yes, just add "Ox Render Settings" modifier somewhere below "Ox Mesh from Strands" modifier. You will need to toggle mesh from strands off to be able to see it in the available modifier list.
