Reputable Contributor AbnRanger Posted April 16, 2015 Reputable Contributor Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Thanks for the heads up. I'm curious what Fusion 8 will bring, feature-wise. Not just that it will operate on the MAC. BTW, on a different topic...I remember you mentioned something about 3ds Max Hair/Fur being too cumbersome to use (sculpting/trimming the hair?). Have you tried this plugin (Fur Guides Painter), that helps speed that process along? http://www.kinematiclab.com/#!furguidespainter/c1fhv I just happened to stumble accross that earlier today and thought it might be worth mentioning.

Reputable Contributor AbnRanger Posted April 17, 2015 Reputable Contributor Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 I still can't believe BMD made Fusion (standard version) free. That was a $3.5k piece of software just a year ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reputable Contributor AbnRanger Posted April 17, 2015 Reputable Contributor Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Abn - Not sure can't remember. I'll check out Fur Guides Painter thanks. I think it came up in a discussion some time ago, regarding a request for a Hair and Fur utility in 3D Coat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member geo_n Posted April 17, 2015 Author Advanced Member Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Maybe that was a hair styling tool in 3dcoat to lw? Can't remember In anycase LW Brush can be used for that now for those that need decent hairstyling in lw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
