Title: Hair Shader support for a few outlier hairs with another color
Post by: OccultMonk on 2018-04-08, 07:30:33

It seems the Hair shader of Ornatrix only has support for random melanin color not for outlier hairs color. How can you create a few outlier hairs with a different color?

If Corona have a hair shader that supports this data, the shader should have an attribute to addd stray colors to hair strands. This is the case with Arnold, Redshift, Renderman and VRay

So we would need a "stray hair" or "outlier hair" attribute in the hair shader? Do I understand this correctly?
Do you know how this is done in Arnold/Redshift/Renderman? (what is the name of the attribute and where to find it in the ui?)

Thanks, that would be great. Could you maybe contact the creators of Ornatrix; Ephere directly? I think they are experts on that :-) I asked the question on their forum too:
