Dynamic Hair Settings

Hi all,

I didn't want to start a new thread just for this, but wanted to share and couldn't find another thread that was really appropriate for it.  I've been playing around with Carrara's Dynamic Hair and as part of that I started making some quick reference charts for some of the hair settings - just thought some othger people might find them useful and interesting too.  

Here's the first two, comparing the hair thickness and scale settings and the shininess and highlight settings. In both images the hair shader has the thickness set to root=100%and tip=100% so the hair is the same thickness along it's length.  I'm trying to just change one setting at a time to really see exactly what it does.

Click on them see the full size - they're both pretty large images.

    Nice charts!  From my own tests, the Thin/Medium/Large settings make around 10x thickness with each step, so thin is one tenth the thickness of medium, and large is 10x the thickness of medium.

    I find it varies a lot according to scale, while medium suits a DAZ figure my iClone imports need large just to see it for example.
