Curves to planes.
polycounter lvl 5
Any idea if there is a plugin to convert hair curves to hair cards?

For Maya:
This plug-in is great http://www.polycount.com/2014/02/26/geo-maya-hair-2/
You don't generate cards from hair, but hair from cards. You can then unwrap and bake the hair down to the cards, if you like. It's a little easier to do hair by modeling the strips out of polygons instead of using curves.
For 3dsmax:
You can do something similar but you generate the hair from splines, then copy the splines, use the cross section tool, then surface and then convert it to polygons. Unwrap and bake. There are also plug-ins like Hair-Farm that allow you to generate hair from geometry.

This tool looks just like what I am looking for!
I tried importing it according to the instructions and am failing quite badly at it. According to it I have to type
import amTools
in the python command line. But when I do it shows
# Error: ImportError: file <maya console> line 1: No module named amTools #
