Ornatrix Maya: Adding more than one group of curves to same distribution mesh

Hello I am trying the demo version of ornatrix. So far is really good and I really dig all the operators and controls Wath I want to achieve is to create two differents hair systems based on curves with the same distribution mesh The first problem that I found is when I select the distribution mesh for the second group of curves it selects the first ornatrix hair system and do not make the connection to the distribution slot of the second hair system To solve that I need to undo the hierarchy created by the first ornatrixhair system, that way I can select the distrution mesh for the second ornatrix hair system and make the connection, then I ground the strands for both hair systems Lastly the second problem. When I add Hair from guide for the first hair system all is working fine but when I add Hair from guide to the second hair system the hair does not follow the second group of curves. Is like that the hair is oriented in another direction Btw I am using this build v1.1.7.9934 Thank you in advance! Attached Files:

Jeordanis Figuereo	Hi Zuka, I can confirm the first problem when you are not able to select the same distribution mesh for two hair systems based on curves, we are looking into it and I will keep you posted. Regarding the second problem, make sure your curves and the distribution mesh have the pivot in the same place, also, you should delete the transform history of the curves for better results. Let me know if that help you. Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer. EPHERE Inc.) LinkedIn Discord

Zuka	Hey Jeordanis, thank you for the reply Sadly I cant solve the second problem. I have checked the pivot of the distribution mesh with the curves and deleted the history of the curves One thing I found is that if I start creating the hair system from the second group of curves all works fine, but now when I create the hair system for the first group of curves the orientation of the hair get mess up. In my first post I started creating the hair system from the first group of curves and the second hair system get mess up I think that the problem has to do with how I made the conection to the destribution mesh, Can you tell me the correct steps to share a common distribution mesh with different group of curves Maybe I am missing something using v1.1.8.10082 Thank you

Jeordanis Figuereo	Hi Zuka, We are still working to fix the bug of the Distribution Mesh, a fix is coming soon. The messed up hair is usually related to something going wrong with the transformation or triangulation of the Distribution Mesh. Try this: Go to the attributes of your mesh - Mesh Controls and set Quad Split to "Left" or "Right" instead of "Best Shape" Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer. EPHERE Inc.) LinkedIn Discord
