Hi all ,

I'm trying to convert a character made with classic C4d material into Octane ones , and I've troubles with hair (I've troubles with everything as I'm new :D but let's start with Hair ):
the hair guides are always displayed even if the hair object are desactivated ( looks like a refreshment problem too ? )
When hair is activated , it seems to works and display the hair polygons ( but still display the guides .. I can't find how to 'hide those guides ' )

have you any idea for this display problem ?
thx

hmm ok if I desactivate hair objects AND hide them from editor/rendering , it disapears in the rendering ..not sure this is the normal worflow but at least we can display and hide that way :)

i wrote the limitiation/tricks and workflow here in help window. See image, find render->hair rendering section. Also there is a few sample scenes in samples packages/hair folder. You'll get the answers. Usage is not so complicated, we have some limitations. LV cannot access to render data. Let me know if you need more help.
