Low-Poly Hair
« on: October 13, 2010, 09:10:01 am »


               Having a bit of trouble with this one.

I replaced all of the PC models with new ones (this has been done for a while), and while some of the hairstyles seem decent, I'm really not liking most. I was just wondering if anyone had any tips, as I'm currently using a "detach the skull, slicesliceslice, drag verts around" approach, and it's probably not the best route to go.

I assumed I might be doing something wrong when I can design a complete set of armour in the time it takes to do a haircut. '<img'>

I can always post up a few screenshots of the base female head, if required.

               Well... I use almost the same method that you.



  I think on how the hairstyle should look, search in nwvault, cep,... for a head with a similar haircut, delete the head's polygons, change the hair and then I add it to the skull of my head. I think that is the quickest way to create a hairstyle

               Unfortunately, that's not really possible since the NWN heads are a completely different shape to mine, so converting them tends to cause more trouble than just making them from scratch. It's a fairly annoying job. '<img'>

I know he was experimenting with different hairstyle stuff, but I've never done more than look at it briefly.
