when i try to append the hair into a new file by bringing in the object the hair is attached to only the object loads without the curves, and if i append the specific cuves that the object appears in new file with a totaly different position and orientation, any tips how to fix this or any tips how to convert all the curves into a single object? when i try to use the join option it says no mesh data even though the geometry node is set to turn the curve into a mesh
The curves become geometry once you apply the GeoNodes Modifier. But that doesn't work outright. Here's how you need to do it: 1. Add a new cube object to the scene. 2. Create a new Geometry Nodes Setup on that cube. 3. In the GeoNode Editor 4. Disconnect the "Group Input" and "Group Output" node 5. Add the "Object Info" node 6. In the Object Selection Box of the "Object Info" node, select the hair curves object 7. Connect the green output of the "Object Info" Node to the Group Output Node. 8. Now You can apply the GeoNode Modifier of the Cube and the hair curves turn into geometry. (9). If you use multiple hair curves objects, you can combine multiple "Object Info" nodes with a "Join Geometry" Node. I usually append the surface + hair curves objects into my new file and I never had any problems with that. Hope this helps. :)
great vid , learnt way more then just the blender's new hair tools , learnt some base hair styling skills that could transfer to other programs and artistic mediums
Hey dude nice videos as usual, i have some questions, when i try to apply hair curves to a model, it shows me a message saying " MISSING UV MAP FOR ATTACHING CURVES ON ORIGINAL SURFACE", DO I have to make a uv map before using this option ?
Seriously. I would love to use this new system to generate hair cards dynamically, but the way he explained how to do it seems like you have significantly less control on the size of the hair cards than just making them using the more common methods. Hoping to be proven wrong.
The length of the card is determined by the curve length and the width is determined by the value node at the bottom left. What else would you like to control? :)
@@Noggi_3D How about hair card generation? Unless this method is just flying over my head, it seems like your demonstration used a pre-made hair card for every curve. I was hoping that at least the hair cards could be generated by using clusters of the new hair curves to create unique hair cards dynamically rather than drawing them by hand, then placed on the mesh using the new curve tools. A method to convert the realistic hair layers you sculpted onto the characters into game ready hair cards would have been ideal, but that may be asking too much of this system.
Excellant tutorial, you covered alot! In future perhaps more in depth on styalized hair concepts please. Also how to do braids and curls. Looking forward to your next tutorial!
Thanks so much for this tutorial! I haven't experimented with it much, but for a way to decrease the rendering time for stills, couldn't you render out different hair curves as View Layers, then render out the character, and finally composite them together? Someone with more experience could probably help me out here, but I would think that could be a viable option without having to lose the detail and density of your hair styling.
Dude, a suggestion: I (and many other people) NEVER found a good tutorial or course that teaches how to make good feathers in Blender. I'm not referring to individual feathers, but using Blender's hair system to create a bird's feather, for example. It would be a great addition to your channel, especially with this new hair system. Congratulations on the work!
@@Noggi_3D I wouldn’t listen to him. This guy has copied and pasted this same exact comment to every video he could find about 3.3 hair. I doubt he cares about you or your content, just that his question is answered.
WOW.... Your making me feel like I got left behind... There is so much packed into this video that I would have to watch it another 50 times to get it all. hehe That said I am interested in your take on using this to do hair for CC4 (Character Creator 4).
Awesome 🔥 very well explained. quick question; while combing the hair it keeps going down and entering inside the head mesh, how can I stop that please
If you select the object and then add the curve object, the UV map of the surface object gets automatically assigned. If not, you can set it in the curves settings of the curves object. You can see it at 7:31
I'm trying to use this new hair system with a rigged mesh but no matter what I do, the hair will just not follow the rigged mesh. It's parented to it, it looks fine when the rig is at default pose. But if I move the head, the hair curves get deformed all over the place
Hi! Awesome tutotial, thanks to you for this! I have just one question, please: there is some way to not get the hair inside the mesh when you're using the comb?
Make sure to select the hair curves object to go into hair "sculpt" mode. You might've opened the sculpt mode for the sphere. If the tools don't show up on the left side, you can bring them up by pressing "T". :)
As someone who has been in AAA for many years making game hair. This is so much better than Maya XD I wonder how good the map rendering is. Any suggestions?
11:56 I Added Reverse Curve Node and after that I didn't be able to edit my curves in sculpt Mode because brushes didn't work as I expected. Instead In Geometry Node I Added a Value of 1 to the Length parameter and divided it on desired curve radius.
I'm curious on whether or not we can do hair dynamics with this system or rig them, if anyone can lead me to any tutorials of that, it would be great, thanks!
Another Blender tutorial where people go way too fast over some of the most essential parts of how to set up hair and focus on the easy stuff like what brush does what. Why do I follow the tutorial exactly then get something like..... "missing uv map for attaching curves on original surface," good tutorials show you how to work through these sorts of things.
This was really clean tutorial and I refer it to all my hairdo exercises, Thankyou!! at 25:10 I really want to animate the hair curves, do you think you can make a separate video on that little section of possible animation? I tried copying the nodes exactly but didnt work for me. I dont need to simulate just want slight animation. tHANKYOUU
Do you have a 3090 laying around (a Quadro 5000 like askNK runs would be an acceptable alternative), to render this before the world ends or I die first?
Awesome tutorial, but I can't find where is the distance that will let me set it so when I comb the curves not to go through the head mesh. Cuz every time I try to comb my hair, it goes through the head. I did have a distance option in particles system for comb, but in the new system this option is not there.
so these are actually hair guides you are shaping. The latest version or at least in 3.6 has 'interpolate hair curves', so in effect you are creating children hairs from the guides. So then you can use a lot less guide hairs like in xgen
5:21 this is what i was looking for as most of my models will be animated and need realistic hair system, my question is if you could please help me out id appreciate it, but how do you separate every batch of hair group just like what you mention in the video? I'm new too blender and I've been trying too but i cant figure it out, can you break it down step by step if you can please. Also my hair won’t comb at the roots it works fine in other projects but not in this one project, do you maybe know what I might be doing wrong?
I separate my hair by duplicating the existing system and removing the duplicated strands in this new hair object. This way the modifiers are immediately copied and I can continue adding new hair in this new object. :)
I am having such a hard time. I'm just rting to put one strand of hair on it and it somehow makes it two. So every strand of hair I put on there are two on top of each other and I can not figure out why
I tried following along with your tutorial but for some reason when i add the interpolate curves node blender becomes essentially unusable. I keep reading that geonodes are supposed to be less performance intensive. Im working on a character with barely 50k faces. What am I doing wrong?
Excellent video as always. Johnny Matthews has a very good series on using geometry nodes to create braids, curls, etc. Perhaps you can build on the concepts shown there and illustrate making braided pony tails ?
broooo.........You have to say that if we made the hair with your workflow we would'nt be able to export the abc to other programs beacause is Not attached to a mesh, you need to first select the only the polygons of the head where you want the hair , create a particle system selecting that polygons ecc.. I spent 2 days in making the hair with your workflow to find out this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's weird to export, but I only figured that out after the video was published. Check my answer to the pinned comment to learn how to convert this system to actual curves/geometry. :)
Thank you so much for this tutorial. This is so much better than the old particle system method; the technology behind this is insane! I still can't believe this is a free program.
Now my question might seems stupid to you guys but... In 2D there is a way to get 100% realistic hair using the Photoshop split frequency technique. In short you take the high frequency layer of perfect hair and apply it onto another image. I can't see why it wouldn't work in 3D. Not being a 3D guy myself I don't know how to do it but I'm sure it's much more realistic than anything I saw so far ON A STILL IMAGE. Since a film is only a succession of still images... OK, more details on request.
Has anyone ever tried to add hair to the entire skin, not only head and facial hair? Everyone knows, that the entire body is covered with small hair, even in women and in places, where people don't shave themselves - practically everywhere. When I look at photorealistic renders of humans, it always seems very convincing but just a tiny bit off - like the skin is made of plastic. I know most of this has to do with surface materials (mostly subsurface scattering), but I think this could give another layer of realism and I don't think I ever saw a render with those tiny hairs included, and definitely haven't seen anyone talking about it in a tutorial (yet)
It can definitely help if you want to make it as realistic as possible. You can definitely distribute hair over the entire surface of an object, but I've never looked into exactly what the node setup for that would look like. :)
Could you explain how to export my model with its hair in an FBX file. I've created the hair for my character and wanted to move it into accurig. When i try to export the fbx to accurig the hair doesnt come with it.
You probably need to turn them into real curves first: 1. Make sure you have a "curve to mesh node" in your GeoNodes setup of your hair 2. add a new cube mesh 3. create a new GeoNodes setup in that cube 4. add an "object info" node in the cube GeoNodes setup 5. select the hair curves object in the "object info" node 6. plug the green output of the "object info" node into the green input of the "group output node" 7. Apply the GeoNodes modifier of the cube in the "Modifier Properties" 8. in object mode select the cube object and use: Object > Convert > Curve Hopefully that works. :)
I wonder if I can use this to create hair similar to what is used for stylized anime characters. You know when they use a Bezier curve, then a circle curve, use the circle to give shape the Bezier, put it close to the head, and edit. So the hair is then converted to a mesh. It's used in VRChat a lot
Hi, thank you for the video it is the best I saw so far : D I have a question though, Is it possible to prevent hair from going inside of the head? honestly I see no much difference between sphere or projected mode
Hello, I'm trying to use the new hair system but on my model it lags really hard. while on the sphere it's super smooth. Did you encounter this problem? Best
For the bun I placed a few curves manually (8 or so) to define the basic shape. Then I activated all the interpolation settings in the Add brush. This allowed me to use the add brush to fill out the rest of the bun. You can probably do the same now with the interpolate hair modifier. :)
when i try to append the hair into a new file by bringing in the object the hair is attached to only the object loads without the curves, and if i append the specific cuves that the object appears in new file with a totaly different position and orientation, any tips how to fix this or any tips how to convert all the curves into a single object? when i try to use the join option it says no mesh data even though the geometry node is set to turn the curve into a mesh

I like this new hair system, especially now that you don't have to use weight painting for the hairline
I didn't mind it, but this is definitely better. :)
I was going to procrastinate today and don't do anything in blender, but now I just got to try this)
Do it! it's fun. :)

Brother how to separate curves from object to duplicate as you show in different colours ,awesome video btw
Awesome 🔥 very well explained. quick question; while combing the hair it keeps going down and entering inside the head mesh, how can I stop that please
There is not clip protection" yet but you can create something like that with a GeoNode system: th-cam.com/video/lUSbJSfGoFU/w-d-xo.html
I can't progress from the first step, because I have no clue how you assign a UV-map to the curve, so I can't use it for anything. XD
If you select the object and then add the curve object, the UV map of the surface object gets automatically assigned. If not, you can set it in the curves settings of the curves object. You can see it at 7:31

Might be an issue with the "Deform Curves on Surface" modifier. Is it the last modifier in the modifier stack?
why is this unlisted?
Hi! Awesome tutotial, thanks to you for this! I have just one question, please: there is some way to not get the hair inside the mesh when you're using the comb?

For some reason the "reverse curve" node also reverses where the brush affects the curves. You can use your method or use 2 "reverse curve" nodes. :)
Thank you for the awesome tutorial!! I have a question, how do you separate the hair into section/objects like you said at 15:22 ?
You exit the sculpt mode, select your mesh again and create new empty hair object.
for some reason, the thickness of the hair does not change, I change the value of the node, but nothing happens :(
I dont have the hair cards situation clear... i followed all steps and didnt get a hair card
am i missing something?
u got a tutorial on how to make dreadlocks with geometry nodes?
I show my setup later in the video. But I also want to do a more elaborate video about GeoNodes setups at some point. :)
Do the hair work well with physics or would it be a ton of work to animate it, when the character is moving in different moves?
I believe you can animate the hair with bones, but I haven't tried that yet. :)

You probably need to turn them into real curves first:
1. Make sure you have a "curve to mesh node" in your GeoNodes setup of your hair
2. add a new cube mesh
3. create a new GeoNodes setup in that cube
4. add an "object info" node in the cube GeoNodes setup
5. select the hair curves object in the "object info" node
6. plug the green output of the "object info" node into the green input of the "group output node"
7. Apply the GeoNodes modifier of the cube in the "Modifier Properties"
8. in object mode select the cube object and use: Object > Convert > Curve
Hopefully that works. :)
Video is well done, but I get a UV map error. think I found were your suppose to put it but crashes Blender everytime without fail sadly.
