wow, it is blowing my mind how powerful and (for the most part) how straight forward and usable the hair+grooming+geo nodes are. coming from xgen in maya.... this is fantastic being able to quickly see your edits live, go back to earlier steps and make changes, and reorder modifiers. blender is so so good
@@NinoDefoq at the moment, I think I do prefer blender over xgen, one thing I do miss is being able to quickly add randomness to the values for clumping, frizz, etc. In Maya, you could quickly just type in rand(0.2, 0.6) and get some nice variation in the modifiers. It looks like in Blender you would have to navigate the geo nodes and do it there. not a big issue but it could become cumbersome.
Where is the Color/UV Map button inside the Group Input node in Blender 4.1? I can't find it and am therefore stuck at this point in your wonderful tutorial.
Connect the Named Attribute "name" input to an empty socket in the group input (timestamp 10:23). I explain how to set it up at around 10:31 :) Let me know how it oges!
Missing info. Hi Nino! Incredible tutorial! Thanks you so much, very usefull. One question, how could I add the attributes "value" and "Color/UVmap" to my geometry node? In the minute 07:23 you have changed something but I can't see what. Thanks in advantage!

You don't need the whole geometry nodes setup. When you add the hair system, a surface_uv_coordinate attribute is created which you can use as the UV coordinates to transfer the texture.
I was having same issue, but I just fixed it by changing "surface UV map" on "Interpolate hair curve [second modifier]" to "Color". Maybe you forgot to change that as well??
@@Nareshistudio Glad it worked, but it seems we don;t need to make this geometry node setup. Blender automatically creates UVmap which you can simply put in attribute in shader editor and it works just fine.
Thank you for that great tutorial! Do you know how to make fur to not grow or show inside the mouth while animating a rigged character? It's weird when my character opens a mouth and we see fur inside his mouth.

Great tutorial! Thank you! One question, during the creation of the fur I went into the edit mod and made some edits deleted some hairs, and then continued to work creating new hairs in sculpt mode, but as it turned out later that some hairs created before edit mode no longer editable using the sculpting tools, only new hairs remained editable. Question, is there any way to return the ability to edit the hairs after edits in the edit mode, or do I need to create everything again?
If you're a Texture Paint noob (like me) and you can't figure out how to "set it to black" at 3:55, tap the 'X' key to swp the black/white colors. Also, if you see only six big squares instead of a whole bunch of little ones, apply the subdivision modifier on the original cube. Welp, applying the subdivision modifier may have been a bad idea? After doing the Texture Paint, and switching back to object mode, all my fur is in a cube shape surrounding the spherical Emitter.
Nice video! It seems as if when I duplicate the hair, the duplicated hair floats above the mesh and is not attached to it. Would you happen to have any idea on how to fix this?
Ohh and by the way, if anybody is having the same problem, use interpolate hair instead of duplicate, and change the distance to guide and density options
If someone by any chance has their fur color working but it's offset slightly change the object info node from "original" to "relative", I have no idea why it's offset to start with but it at least fixes it
This is such a great tutorial series. Fascinating and so helpful. Thank you so much for sharing your techniques and knowledge. THANK YOU! Dg
Thank you so much for the kinds words!!!
Thank you again, it's hard to find quality tutorials on this topic. Your work is appreciated!
Nice Nino 😁
Thanks for these tutorials.
Appreciate it! 😇

Damn that's sick coming from an xgen user! What would be your preference at the moment?

Any video on that 😅
@@theLazyPaa just plug texture to the color in the material. nothing more
Thanks so lot for this tutoriel 🙏🙏🙏🙏
You're welcome! Glad you like it 😁
I setup the nodes as you advised but the fur material doesn't align with the model texture

press N on the geo nodes to show the group menu tab
I couldn't find the answer to my question in the video, so I kept watching and found it at 10:38. Thank you, thank you.
Great series, do you have any idea on how to hide the fur so you can have more than 1 fps while animating?
Hiya! I'd just set the viewport display percentage of hair to be 0% or a low amount :)
Can you please make a tutorial about how to animate the fur? Like with wind etc. That would be amazingg
Great tutorial! Thank you!

nice
Cheers!
really nice, for still image perfect ! but for animation....zonk so sad. thanks for tutorial on this new system. ciao

Can you still get the blend file for this?
nice, so we ended up with a furry ball that looks like crap, well done!
