Introduction to Xgen: 01 Width and taper

On this series you are going to learn the basics of xgen grooming completely free.
A lot of tips and tricks on how to work with xgen and solve most of the common issues that you can find when working with it. I will try to make as much videos as possible for this series.
You can see the full series on jesusfc.net/tutorials/introdu...
As you may have notice, xgen can be quite tricky sometimes with random errors that most of the time are because of the wrong use of the workflow, but once you get it right, you would notice how strong is the software that Maya has and the possibilities that you can open to get a better hair on your works!
I want to thank to all the patrons that made this series possible. If you want to see more of this series, remember to share it and support it on Patreon.

​ @Jesus Fernandez Hi, Jesus I've always to know if there was a way to apply different widht ramp in xgen collections? there is a way or it's too much?

[@emiliocampana1]

hola, porque suele pasar que hay pelo que parece que atravesara la topologia? como si viniera desde adentro? utilice como base una parte de la cabeza y no toda la topologia, sera ese el error?

How to make / control the guides width | Height like yours?

[@JesusFernandez14]

Xgen uses the scene scale to define everything, and the scale its in CM. So if you create your groom on a real scale scene, xgen will use the correct width for it. If your guides are too thin or too big, its because your scale is wrong, and the only way to fix it is to go to the guides and change the width attribute manually on the channel box

[@b-rodd]

How do control so some areas have thinner hair? Draw 2 maps with different width values?

[@SoraluverEternity]

You could create a new description for the thinner hair

[@darijozivkovic7931]

What programming language XGen is using? And where I can learn it?
