I’m having trouble creating a weight map for hair physics and I can’t find any up-to-date instructions (shouldn’t there be a ready-made weight map that comes with the hair?)
Hi…
You will find embedded characters like Camila already have a weight map for the hair. However, you can easily create weight maps for other hair.
Please take a look at the tutorial HERE. This should help you setup hair and clothing.
I came to the forums today because while in iClone I wanted Physics for a dress that I imported.
When I tried to click Activate Physics, I received an error saying that I had to add a grey map first. The problem was that there was no where to add the grey map.
I still had the dress open in CC4, and when I clicked Activate Physics in CC4, I received a popup to Edit the Weight Map. I added one from there which I will need to edit.
When the Edit Weight Map box popped up for CC4, an Edit Weight Map box also popped up for iClone.
So, there was either a glitch with iClone that CC4 fixed, or the Edit Weight Map box popped up under another window. It is annoying when pop ups are pop unders and show up on different monitors.
Maybe trying in CC4 or checking for a popup under all of your open windows will help you.
