Good evening,

I recently acquired Ornatrix for Maya and I ran into some issues. Mainly, I've been working on a character's hair using the Edit Guides tool, but the changes made to the hair are not showing when I Render. Here is an example:

Render Example

I'm using Maya 2018 and rendering with Arnold. Any pointers about why this is happening and how to fix it would be highly appreciated. Please!

Hi,

Are you using Edit Guides on top or below HairFromGuides? If you are using it on top of HairFromGuides this is the expected behavior, unless you show 100% on the viewport. For example: If you use Edit Guides to groom 50% of hairs, Arnold will render 100%, the remaining 50% which is not affected by the Edit Guides in the viewport will appear unchanged in the render. If this is the case, you have to either use Edit Guides below HairFromGuides or increase the amount of hair in the viewport to 100%.

Thank you very much! It was a simple fix but I don't think I could have got there on my own. I'm still really struggling with the pipeline. Thank you for your help!
