Would it be correct to assume this doesn't run on a Mac?

LAMH runs perfectly on a Mac. My partner does his development for LAMH on the Mac. :-)

Awesome. Thanks for the quick reply.
Hey Joe, since it probably doesn't come all the times with the readme (after the installation process), I'd like to remind (also to other new users of course) that we have a large collection of presets available on our LAMH blog site, at the following address: http://www.furrythings.com/presets/
I have both Plugins and I use them both...
Either one can do what I need done...
As I have said before the first one that comes out with a full Rig attached Basically to the Nodes will have the upper hand...Or automatically attach Morphs to the Hair when you go back and forth between stylings and DS...!
Can you say animatible hair....(WORD)

Thanks for the reminder! I'll start the proving-grounds tests sometime this weekend. (Not tomorrow, though; that's reserved for Star Trek.)
Request noted!

Oh the new Star Trek movie... I'm eager to watch it too, hopefully will arrive here soon as well :)

I know who John Harrison really is, but I ain't tellin'. ;) Can you check the manual PDF link on your features page? It's not working for me. (EDIT: Strike that - it worked OK when I downloaded it instead of trying to open it right there.)

Sorry, please try again, it should work now (since I updated to latest WordPress version, I noticed some flaws).

I've used both when they were first released and unfortunately returned both because they kept crashing Daz, and even with the wonderful help from Kendall, still had the problem. Now I'm regretting it, because I downloaded the fantastic LAMH player the other day to see if it crashes and it works perfectly (about 95% of the time, unless I do something silly) and being able to tweak some of the presets would be a huge plus.
That being said, the Human Hair Shader is AWESOME guys!
The thing that attracted me to Garibaldi was that I thought the hair looked better. It also didn't crash as much as LAMH. (But I never had much luck getting it to look good...) I found LAMH easier to use though.
Anyway, the LAMH presets look great straight out of the box. So much so I totally want it again. How long does the sale go for?
What is the difference between Garibaldi and LAMH anyway? Does one have more features than the other?
Having the hair not push through the skin would still be a huge plus.
Here's a quick pic of the Dog preset on the Millennium Dog LE with the HHS applied. It's probably not supposed to be used on fur, but I like it more.
The sale duration is controlled by DAZ, we have no idea how long it will last.
As for the differences, while both can do hair/fur, LAMH can be used for much more than just hair/fur. The 1.0 version can be used for grass, vegetation, condensation, sweat, and much more. The 1.06 version of the full plugin is imminent (now everyone knows one of the reasons for the delay) and as soon as we can get an "OK" from our testers, LAMH will do even more.
Kendall
Thats awesome Kendal..Instances...So cool...
Wow...sweat? How does that work?
Select the area for the sweat as a follicle set. Assign guide hairs.
Upon export to studio, select the option to use instances.
Select your favorite droplet prop.
Set the number of "Export Hairs" sufficiently small for your area (this will take experimentation)
Export. Set the shader for a liquid (or blood, or....)
Render.

EDIT: You can create a forest in a similar way. Just use your favorite landscape object as the object to use LAMH on.

Yeah, i love instancing! I've used it to put leaves on a tree (in my case i put clover on the tree) and feathers on something. I also made the feather using LAMH, with just a skinny cube primitive and LAMH.
LAMH has so many functions and, with the right application of the tools, handles long hair pretty well. I love making hair. You can see all the long hair styles I've done.
Awesome! Where can I beg Daz to keep the sale until Thursday? :p
Has the full version been updated with the Human Hair Shader?
Hi, based on the way previous sales went, I think it will be on sale for another day or two.
not yet, when the new full version update comes out it should have the human hair shader, but for now just in the player. :) SOON (i hate to say tha but it will be there soon)
i too have issues with the player crashing, i'm not sure if maybe it has to do with windows 8 or something else, my drivers i believe are up to date, the drivers were all downloaded online in march wheni buit the pc, but I have no internet where I live so there may be updates i should install
What graphic card, drivers version you have? When you get a chance, if you can email me the log file, I can take a look at what's going on (info_at_alessandromastronardi.com) .
BTW, new player update coming very soon with several fixes...
BTW folks, if you like to try how Look at my Hair works instancing props, here is a tutorial that explain how to do it.
I hope my english is quite understandable there: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kd9EO7nCopA
The video shows how to populate a terrain with several instances by mixing flowers and plant props.
As has been said also by Kendall, you can actually use any prop you like and thus 'fur' any object and replace hair with any geometry you like... endless possibilities...
I'm actually not sure if it is intel graphics, I'm having one of Nvidias graphic cards but that's about all I know. And I always try to keep the drivers somewhat up to date so yeah, they are newer than dec 2012 :)
However, my RAM is only 8gb which I would assume is a tad bit too low, since everything slows drastically when I tried to use Lamh.. and than it usually ended up crashing or not responding at all.
I do however like what I have seen when it comes to Lamh, but until I am able to get a better machine I think I will have to look from the distance, for now atleast :)

Hadn't seen that when I sent my response.. hmm, I'll see if I can find the info about the full spec of my computer and graphic card :)
edit 2 - this is what I can find, and I'm sorry for the sucky translating.. my system is in swedish so I am hoping I managed to translate things into understandable english *blush*
Classification - 5.9 Prestanda classifaction
Processor - Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2310 CPU @ 2.90 GHz
RAM - 8,00GB
Systemtype - 64-bit OS Windows 7 Home Premium
Graphic card - GeForce GT 530 version 314.22
But yeah, when I tried using the free player it slowed the machine even more than when I use several lights in scene. And either it crashed on the spot or the hair came out as not existing and than it crashed. I'm sorry I don't have any log files to send, but as I assumed it was my machine that couldn't handle the program I just uninstalled the Lamh palyer and decided to try it out again once I had a new machine

Hi Carola,
in the upcoming LAMH update (both player and full version) we've spent lot of time optimizing memory consumption and how data is used and released. I'm confident that it will certainly run faster and use resources more wisely.
You might want to check out the new player update, which will be released soon, I believe with 8G you'll be good to go with it...
I will give it a go, and if it doesn't work out I will try to remember to keep a log file so we can figure out what I (or my computer) is doing wrong ^^ any idea when soon is? *whistles innocently*
If all goes as planned, we should be able to pull out the new player within a week.

I'll be picking it up and giving it a go than :) thanks for taking the time to respond and trying to figure out things *hugs*
if you have trouble figuring out how to do something just ask! :)
I went ahead and purchased it, I will try getting a log file when I get home, if i get one with the plugin like i did with the player, and put it on my laptop so i can send from work tomorrow. Hopefully I will be able to play with it when i get home tonight, are there any text tutorials for the plugin or just the video ones?
