I am trying to do a character in maya with fur, the character needs to have a undercoat.. and another thicker coat in selected areas.. Mayas help says..

"You cannot link individual fur descriptions to different UV sets"

But this is very retarded if you ask me.. It seems like there HAS to be a way to Do it..

I made a uvmap for the characters (body hair) and a uvmap for the (neck area) and the (top of the head) in veign because it says i Cant link individual fur descriptions to different uvsets...

Im trying to do it in the Relationship editor for FUR/UV , can someone Please help a brotha out?

I am in no way an expert on this, but isn't it possible to give your character one UV-set and use baldness maps for each fur descriptor to control where the different types of fur should be visible?

(And should you be stuck on how to make the textures work with the fur: press the 'bake' button. That was what got me stuck recently :) )
