ISO Long Hair with a Crazy Amount of Movement Morphs [Solved]

edited September 2020 in The Commons

I'm needing a long hair with a nearly excessive amount of movement morphs. The project I'm working on requires a HUGE array of action scenes in which the hair will have to be able to move in just about every way imaginable (except upside down, it doesn't need to be able to do that - but it does need to be able to move in a large variety of ways). I don't have a lot of time to set up each scene so I can't really use dForce hair as the sim and setup time is too extensive to use dForce hair for this particular project.

The style needs to be long (at least past the shoulders) straight-ish (it can be wavy but not curly), and no bangs. It doesn't matter what generation it's for as I can always parent it to the figure's head if it's for a different generation.

If you guys know of any hairs with a style like that that also comes with a massive amount of movement morphs, I'm all ears! :) I could do my own morphs for the hair but that can be quite time-consuming, so I'm hoping to find one that works for my needs without a lot of additional work needed. I also could spend hours combing through the store looking, but I'm hoping to avoid that headache (and sometimes a hair will list a lot of morphs but the morphs hardly move the hair at all) - so hopefully you guys have experience with a hair model or two that you find has a lot of great movement options that would work for what I need. :)

    Hey 3Diva! Janet Hair can be made to reach past the shoulders, and it has several pieces with 3 movements each. If you double it up, you can get even more movement. It is a great hair for action scenes since you can get almost any movement you want. Here are the pieces and movements:

    lBack01-Bend, lBack01-Side-Side, lBack01-Twist
    lBack02-Bend, lBack02-Side-Side, lBack02-Twist

    Thanks, xyer0! I think I need something a bit longer, though. I didn't get as many suggestions as I was hoping for so I did some digging and I'm thinking of going with this one: https://www.daz3d.com/wild-wind-hair-for-genesis-8-females

    It comes with over 100 movement and wind morphs plus is rigged with 13 bones. I'll experiment and see if the morphs move it enough for my needs. Unless the morphs don't "do much", in which case, this one might work: https://www.daz3d.com/super-sleeky-hair-for-genesis-3-female-s-and-genesis-3-male-s-and-oot-hairblending-2-0 (It says it comes with 193 morph dials! Whoa!)

    I THINK one of those should work. 

    Thank you for the suggestion, it made me look at OOT's catalogue here to see if there was something that might work. The Super Sleeky one might be the way to go. I'll have to test both that one and the Wild Wind hair out. :) Between the two, I'm willing to bet one of them will do the trick! *crosses fingers*

    Thanks again for the suggestion! :)

    Although a Strand based hair, the lenght can be adjusted easily and it simulates very, very quickly. When I rendered in Iray, I used it whenever I needed a long hair

    The tails have bones in them; actually I love AprilYSH hairs because as far as I can recall, all have bones in them - but its possible a couple dont.
