Hey everyone,


I’m looking for the best way to create realistic animal fur in Maya that works well for animation. I’ve used XGen before, but I know there are other options like Yeti and Ornatrix. For those of you with experience, which system do you prefer, and why?


I want something that gives good artistic control but also works efficiently in production, especially when it comes to dynamics and grooming for different shots. Any insights, pros/cons, or tips would be really appreciated!
