Hi,

I'm working on a project and I would like to hide the emitter of my hairs.
On cycles I just have to uncheck the emitter button, but on Octane if I do That, my hairs disappear on the render.

Thx for your help ;)

What you can do in octane is assign a different material to the hair vs the emitter geometry, then set the opacity of the emitters material to zero.

I did this already, but as you can see, the surface produce shadows and if I hidden the shadows, my hair dos not have ones.
