Hello all! I'm using Ornatrix version 2.3.7 for Maya. I have a hair style that I created and am happy with, now I'm trying to simulate the dynamics using the Mesh From Strands method to use nCloth. The dynamics work great- but now the polygon strips get in the way of the hair rendering? The nCloth has given me the best dynamic results and I have many scenes to get done- but I'm rendered (no pun intended) unable to render in Arnold. What do I need to do? Am I doing something wrong? I've attached operator stack and what the hair looks like when rendered. Thank you in advance!

Hi,

Make sure that the option "Is Guide Mesh" it's checked in Mesh from Strands. This will ensure that the hair mesh is converted back to guides and then hairs by Hair from Guides.
