Maya nHair: How to preserve hair style and have soft/dynamic movement

Rigging
1

hi,
I’m struggle with this issue in Maya nHair. I have a character with short hair with defined shape (pre modeled curves). I want to do simulation on that hair but I met problems like:

  1. To strong movement can change shape of the hair and it will not bring back start/rest shape.
  2. To high values of input Curve Attract make hair behave very rigid. Same with Bend Resistance attribute.
  3. I have no possibility to provide solid angular bend limits. So far i haven’t found attribute that will stricly responsible for that. If you know how to do this please post a response.


Any articles and links about advanced nHair hairSystem settings for simulation will be helpful.

Regards,
k.
