Hair grabber 2.9.9 for Maya (maya script)

A helper tool for authoring hair cards for game assets.

Q/A

Tool selects random vertices

Date:	06/23/2016
Submitted by:	CrystalWater

Instead of grabbing tip or root, I get a selection of random verts @_@ I am really not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Am I missing any steps while preparing the model?
I did; create a plane, apply planar mapping and then click grab in the tool ...

Any help and advice is much appreciated. Hair grabbed looks like a fantastic tool and I would love to use it.

Hi zahal, too bad that there's no workaround yet. I hope your time will allow you to update the script one day. Good luck with your current project + hope to hear from you at some point :)

Hey again, CrystalWater Im so sorry but your msg went unnoticed for me for a while.. I havent had much time recently to tend to the script, but this is a reaccuring problem with some installations of maya and Im not sure how to resolve it at the moment. I am working on an alternative main function which should solve this potentially, but it's taking time, and Im working on my demoreel these days and dont have much of it to dedicate to this.. If I come up with a solution Ill let you know, in the meantime I can't help. Wish you the best of luck with your poly work, and hopefully I can get back to you with a solution not too long in to the future.

Hey CrystalWater! Maybe I can help.. does it give you an error at all when you use the selection buttons?
