Hi,

First, I'm a student learning max.

I have done a model (a girl) and I want to animate her hair. Something like the wind blowing in them. Her hair is a regular mesh.

I tried to attach a warp modifier on an object with a soft selection and use a wind. But the wind doesn't affect it, it seems to work only on particules, but not on a mesh.

Any idea for doing that will be very helpfull.

Thanks.

Go get Simcloth at www.chaosgroup.com and use that, it's free and really very good, and works with spacewarps.

Thanks Iain McFadzen

I downloaded it. And iI just gave it a try. It's a very good plugins.

I'm just trying to figure out now how I can do some variation of the intensity of the effect at a vertex level. So the end of hairs move more than near the head.

Thanks for this link and the idea.
