Jeordanis Figuereo	Hi Emilie, I just tried with build 12092 and it seems to be working fine, no crashes here. Are you getting any error or warning in the script editor before the crash? P.S: You forgot to include the screen capture. Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer. EPHERE Inc.) LinkedIn Discord

Elifayn	Re: screenshot, my appologies, looks like I forgot to press the upload button. I recreated the scenario and this time screen captured the script log and the output window as well. Could it simply be that my computer cannot convert that many mesh strips due to a limitation of RAM? Ive used this hair model before though and it seemed to work then.

Jeordanis Figuereo	Also, try with less hair and see what happens. Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer. EPHERE Inc.) LinkedIn Discord

Elifayn	I tried it with a different, simpler hair structure. I got this message which might help (see attachment) Attached Files: Capture_ornatrix3.JPG (58433 bytes),

Elifayn	P.S. It did however create a hair system.

Jeordanis Figuereo	This error means that input mesh strip could be invalid/have incorrect faces, but this should not give you an error. Can I have at least the hair mesh to reproduce this? Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer. EPHERE Inc.) LinkedIn Discord

Elifayn	Sure, how do I send it to you? Is there an email I can use?

Elifayn	Looks like I managed to get it to work. I reinstalled ornatrix... perhaps there was something that didnt install right. Im sorry to have taken up your time.

Description:	Hair from Mesh strips crashes Maya 2017 with latest builds. This is the first attempt I have made to use Ornatrix in Maya 2017 (used to use it in 2016). I reset the liscences and redownloaded the latest install to add it as a plugin in 2017. Then tried to create hair from mesh strips but it crashed every time I gave it a go.
Steps to Reproduce:	Mesh hair strips selected In Ornatrix shelf, press the Hair from Mesh strips button Computer crashes (see image screen capture)
