Hello! I searched around for this and couldn't find an answer. I'm hoping one of you experts out there can help me.

I'm using the Makenna hairstyle on my G8 character. In the texture shaded mode, I see the strands showing up. But neither in Iray preview or when I actually render the image does the hair show up. I tried deleting and starting over with no success. The hair isn't hidden. I've had similiar issues with the Togatta hair as well. Any reason this would happen?

Edit: I solved my own problem. :D Apparently when the mesh grabber tool is still selected, the hair disappears. Who would have known?

  • Thank you for editing to add your resolution! This problem has been dogging me for weeks with the Togatta Hair. Always somehow seemed to "solve itself" eventually... and now I know why.

    Yeah mesh grabber mode does does some weird things, so does geometry editor mode.

  • I am loading Togatta Hair for G8F and I have made sure that Mesh grabber is not selected.

    I am having the same problem but with the G8.1F and getting popup of saying that it is unsupported
    and it then puts the skullcap outside the partent window for the G8.1F as its own parent.

    I have attached the screenshot of both the G8.1F selected and then when loading it I get the popup

    The hair was made for GF9, not GF8.1.

    try this, make sure nothing is selected in the scene and then load the hair. Go to the little bars at the upper right of the pane and change the scene identifier from the default genesis female 8 to genesis female 8.1. Now right click the hair and fit to like any other hair. If it still doesn't fit as it should, try going into properties and changing the following to auto.

    Iray preview is not a render.
