| Hi Jason, Yes, we are aware of this. Solid Angle made some big internal changes to their API, we are working to support Arnold 5. I will keep you posted. Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer. EPHERE Inc.) |
| Hi Jeordanis, Thanks for the response. Do you have a rough idea of your timeline for a fix? Are we looking at days, weeks, months? I really hope it's not that latter! |
| Should be days, we already have it working it seems just need to fix some issues. Major compiler switch is what delayed this. Marsel Khadiyev (Software Developer, EPHERE Inc.) |
| Excellent Marsel. Looking forward to the new release! |
| Hi Jason Arnold 5 is now suported in the latest nighly (1.2.2.10911 or later) please give it a try and let us know if you encounter any issue. Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer. EPHERE Inc.) |
| You guys are awesome! I'll give it a try tonight and post my feedback here. |
| Early tests seem to work just fine, but I'm just about to get into a more involved groom and will be hitting more features. I'll report any irregularities I find. Thanks! |
| Thank you! Please test the new hair shader included in Arnold 5 and let us know if everything is working well (UVs, Curve IDs). Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer. EPHERE Inc.) |
| I seem not be able to get a texture applied to the hair using Arnolds new standard hair shader. |
| Hi James, Thank you for pointing it out. We are working on this. Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer. EPHERE Inc.) |
| Hi James, We have updated the translator to pick the UV map up correctly, now you can render textures on Ox hair using Arnold 5. This has been solved 10 days ago but I coulnt find this post to update you, sorry for the delay. Please give it a try (If you haven't done yet) and let us know. Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer. EPHERE Inc.) |
| I just switched to Arnold 5 and am having the same issue. By default the hair doesn't seem to honour any of the aiStandardHair parameters, If I check 'Per-Strand Coordinates, then the shader renders correctly, but I am unable to texture the hair with maps.
