Hello

 

I had a go at braids for the 4th time, and while I like to play for hours I just don't have the time, I need some direction, please.  There seems to be a lack of information on how to use the braid, with that I mean the settings to get it to work well.  There is no documentation for C4D on this subject and in Max or Maya there still seems to be a very vague direction.  Iv got a braid pattern, I have no idea how many guides I need for it to be effective, and generaly what settings produce a nice clean tight single braid for a polytail.

  • From what I gather you need 2 or more guides found from the Definitions part of the user guide.  
  • You need the braid pattern, and its to be used with the Clump operator as external guides.
  • Max and Maya comes with sample scenes.  Sample scenes for C4D would significantly help the user learn Ornatix, you simply can't beat reverse engineering to learn a bunch of things from just observation.  Im eager to make some videos to put out there but I need some sample scenes, please?

Thanks,
