View Full Version : Hair renders out of place

Hi all,

I've been working on a character for a while. Have used 'hair' module for eyelashes as well as hair on the character's head.
Only last night I rendered the stills and all was fine.
This morning the eyelashes are floating a few inches in front of the character's head. They are probably left in the neutral position of the head (The head has been animated to look right a bit). The funny thing is that in the viewport eyelashes are working fine, and move with the head. It's only the render where they are floating, and also that it is the same file that worked fine last night and today we have this problem. Hair on the head is rendering fine.
I've already tried re-rooting them, enabled the dynamics too (had disabled dynamics since eyelashes wouldn't need them, obviously)

Any guesses, anyone?

Could it be a priority problem, since you animated the model?

Do you mean, it could work if I switched the priority on the eyelashes object to 'animation' instead of the default 'generators' ?
By the way, I just copied everything and pasted to a new file (of course had to add 'hair render' in the render settings manually) and took a render, it works fine, well, at least for now.. I'm curious if it goes bad again..
thanks
