Jeordanis Figuereo	Hi Kevin, We are aware of this. This is because recent internal changes to Ornatrix and we are waiting for Chaos Group to implement those changes in their engine. It shouldn't take long, I will keep you updated. Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer. EPHERE Inc.) LinkedIn Discord

Jeremy Howdin	Hello - is there a work around for this? We urgently need to get this to work. Same error: maya 2018 vray 3.60.04 ornatrix v2.0.6.13726 The demo version didn't have this error. Can we use a previous version or ornatrix? We're currently converting hair to geo but not ideal. Cheers, Jeremy

Jeordanis Figuereo	Hi, I can try contacting Chaos Group again but we actually don't recommed using Ox V2 beta in production, only for testing. Maybe you can go back to V1 and try to load your scene, which may give you some problems if you build your whole hair objects in V2, or maybe you can render the hair as mesh using MeshFromStrands.

Jeremy Howdin	Thank you - I didn't realize I was using the beta - have tested V1 and all is good.

Jeordanis Figuereo	Hi, Another work arround if you want to use the beta is, instead of adding the ChangeWidthNode to change the strand thickness, use RenderSettingsNode. This node has been deprecated and is no longet in the shelf but you can add it using the following MEL command: OxAddStrandOperator "" "RenderSettingsNode"; Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer.
