cool tutorial! so what about of using aiJitterColor? is it correct if I connect UserDataColor to Data parameter in aiJitterColor and then connect Jitter to mix parameter of alSwitchColor and play around with threshold setting?
When I use aistandardhair, my image has all of those white specular dots. I can't seem to increase aa or specular settings or anything to get a clean image. Does anyone know what is wrong. I'm just a hobbiest.
I have a question about using Arnold 5 with fur. I wonder how you would color fur region with diffuse map? Cause I create a custom color map plus userDataColor and plug it into Base_color but it didn't work as it should work like in arnold 4. Please help me on fur.
The hair object in the Outliner is listed as "Description1" which is the default name for an XGen groom. You can create the hair in XGen and convert it to curves or geometry; the new Maya has XGen Interactive Groom which is a more direct & easy way to do it, which takes care of all the tedious intermediary steps.
Thank you very much for the beautiful video, it imitated immediately, but my hair does not shine, I do something wrong with the lighting for hair, how do I illuminate the hair properly, is there a tutorial for the lighting of hair? Thanks again Gr. Fredi
Thank you very much for the quick response, I have done today, but it does not look really nice. You've made so many tutorials, there is something like that, then I could look how to do it right, thanks again. Gr.Fredi
Hi Arvid, I'm following your tutorials on seting up lights and rendering hair, but my renders turn out really pixelated, even though my resolution is the same (or higher) than yours. Any idea?
Hi, can u tell me about Arnold setting to render hair ? Im getting noise, I tired AA samples at 10 and specular samples at 10 , lit with a hdri dome with 4 sample, still there is noise , on the specular aov mainly.
Thanks for the tutorial great work! I have a question to ask I'm trying to render some hair to be used as texture for game hair cards when render every hair strands seems to have a white edge when I use the aistanderdhair shader is there away to prevent this from happening at all I have attached the image here ibb.co/hDEdkm Many Thanks
Hello Arvid, By any chance, how would you approach creating gray strands of hair in aiStandardHair ? You explained it with alsurface shader, but can't get it to work here due to missing nodes :/
no , In This new Arnold render v5 as I test it in Maya environment ( for other software/s no Idea ) is absolutely rubbish for me , very slow , removing some of the important shader like SSS skin , Hair ... And worst mishap is for our older projects which made them functionless completely Please consider everything before installing
Thank you for your hard work, you r z best!!...your channel is the best in lighting and rendering so far...if you have time can you make tutorial for rendering fur on production level, like zootopia animals...thanks a lot
Arvin Please be honest and don't make escape anything . For applying the gradient to the hair , applying 2d texture is base of the emitter surface UV . But in this video UV is based on the hair strands Which is very fantastic But Seems You escape something related to UV to the hair then U going to unnecessary parameters . which is not very important .
I mean why the fuck do i have to duplicate my meshs faces in order for my hair to grow at specific places... is there a way to select or paint where i want my hair to grow....
Fantastic tutorial as always! Is there any chance you can show how you got the hair on and groomed so nicely onto the head sculpt?
No, I am not a groomer.
What was used for the hair then? xgen?
+Mustache Hunter yes it was

black hairs at 1:16 ? are they created from fiber mesh zbrush ? i am confused how to get thses type of hairs in maya

ThankYou :-)
Is there at least one video which tells about combining UV's hairs color and color per lenght.
Arnold 5 and Joe Alters Shaves and haircuts ?

You need to get a nice environment map
Thank you very much for the quick response, I have done today, but it does not look really nice. You've made so many tutorials, there is something like that, then I could look how to do it right, thanks again.
Gr.Fredi
what laptop/workstation do you have?
Someone knows how can I render the hair diffuse/albedo?
Hi Arvid,
I'm following your tutorials on seting up lights and rendering hair, but my renders turn out really pixelated, even though my resolution is the same (or higher) than yours. Any idea?
dude please, volumetric shading (Volume Shaders) in arnold please!!!
patience my son patience.
Is it possible to get the scene file so that we can follow along?
Nice tutorial and how can i render paint effects in arnold....
Thank you and What about the texture maps...
Arvid
Is ai standard surface assigned to the head geo in this video?
Yes
It would be great if you post a video about how to make a skin look with aiStandardSurface.
Is it possible to render hair created in xgen to keyshot?
Carolene Penaroyo
No
Hi, can u tell me about Arnold setting to render hair ? Im getting noise, I tired AA samples at 10 and specular samples at 10 , lit with a hdri dome with 4 sample, still there is noise , on the specular aov mainly.
Im using Yeti .
Anybody got a link to a good xgen hair creation tutorial?
Thanks for the tutorial great work! I have a question to ask I'm trying to render some hair to be used as texture for game hair cards when render every hair strands seems to have a white edge when I use the aistanderdhair shader is there away to prevent this from happening at all I have attached the image here ibb.co/hDEdkm Many Thanks
Please help, when i install the latest mtoa and open the render view or render a high quality scene it keeps crashing
is it possible to get random grey hairs with the new hair shader?
Yes, check out my other Hair tutorial, same principles apply
i cant get that shiny hair
i can't find aistandarthair material, can you tell me why>?
Hello Arvid,
By any chance, how would you approach creating gray strands of hair in aiStandardHair ? You explained it with alsurface shader, but can't get it to work here due to missing nodes :/
I havent tried it yet, but should be the same workflow. I ll check it out.
I'm missing the alJitter and alswitchcolor nodes, couldnt find a replacement to ai material
Similar nodes like that ship with mtoa
I use the maya2018，the anorld for maya2018 don’t have aihair.So What can I replace this material with?
曹鑫 aistandardhair
how would you get hair like this? the geo i mean. Is it just groomed fibre mesh from zbrush?
Xgen in Maya.
helped quite a bit.
Hi, Arvid. Great tutorial. btw would u like to make a video for maya live conecteing for nuke ?
thx
have you checked out my live session? Arnold Nuke Aton?
please do skin shading tutorial....
skin shading in arnold 5 is dead and the new sss is very basic
Adel Adili, so no more realistic skin shadin n arnold ah?
no , In This new Arnold render v5 as I test it in Maya environment ( for other software/s no Idea ) is absolutely rubbish for me , very slow , removing some of the important shader like SSS skin , Hair ... And worst mishap is for our older projects which made them functionless completely
Please consider everything before installing
In other side Unfortunately alShaders is not supported in 2017
Adel Adili ter sud b a way...hav to find it out...
any project files?
is there a skin shader??? Cause aiskin isn't no more! and alsurface is coming red
Thank you for your hard work, you r z best!!...your channel is the best in lighting and rendering so far...if you have time can you make tutorial for rendering fur on production level, like zootopia animals...thanks a lot
and how do i get my hair to move with the mesh cause when i move the mesh the hair doesn't move with it and ends up staying in one place.
use Xgen
i do use xgen my problem is why does it suck compered to c4d hair simulation (in terms of ease of use)
tq
Thank you very much for the video:)

Looks so good,thanks
Can you share the hair maya files to me?Thanks very much.
I mean why the fuck do i have to duplicate my meshs faces in order for my hair to grow at specific places... is there a way to select or paint where i want my hair to grow....
Oh I hate the new hair shader... Takes much, *much* longer to render; it's not like it looks much better either.
hi Sir Where Do You Live?
Pls make a tutorial about making hair from scratch.... Cause maya sucks at hairs....
Lol Renderman hair looks better
