Some update. Working on the hair still , managed to make haircards ( Not the ones shown ) and trying to make it work with the GMH2 maya script somehow. Quite difficult.
Sorry guys, I don't get email from this board and long weekend here, but thanks for the pointers, will dive into some of these scripts. Really appreciate the help! :)
In the thread accompanying that script: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2010609&postcount=26 I don't know how to do it manually in Maya though
With 12 weeks? Definitely scripting. It's something I've dabbled in lightly but I simply don't have time to learn it in depth. The amount of utility it offers is huge.
So it does. Looks like an oversight in the script that handles that, but I'm not sure the best way to fix it. In the meantime, Mesh>Smooth should still work for you.
