I’ll admin I have no idea what ‘type’ of hair it is (I’ve seen discussions mentioning some different techniques and their pro and cons). I have tried all sorts of render settings but nothing seems to work.
Anyone know how to make this type of hair modle visible in renders (and filament would be a bonus)?
Some Iray hair won’t be visible in the Viewport window until you actually render the image. Some hair have a preset that will show preview hair in the Iray Viewport but not all. Try doing a spot render/ Alt+Shift+C of just the head area to see what the hair looks like.
When I’m putting together a scene I spend 99.9% of my time either in smooth shaded or texture shaded.
And when I’m adjusting my cameras’ depth-of-field settings I’ll switch to wireframe view and make my camera visible and switch to perspective view in the viewport so I can get a better overview of the frame width and focal distances for my camera.
The only time I switch to Iray Viewport is to do a quick preview of my scene’s Tonemapping and Environment settings prior to actually doing a final render.
And this is with (2) 2080ti’s which are quite fast in their own right.
Although next month I’m hoping to get a whole new rig with (3) 3090s so I might change up my workflow a bit. LOL!
