Hi! Hope everyone’s having a decent day. Right now I’m struggling with unreal’s built in cloth physics; I have a character with curved hair, but when I apply cloth physics, the hair falls straight down, as if normal hair were wet. There are about a billion variables called “[something] stiffness”, but which one will let me increase hair stiffness to give the hair some curvature in spite of gravity? If not one of these options, how should I do it?
The cloth is made entirely within unreal engine. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
I had the same question for quite some time now, and today i finaly found a solution.
Besides the Max Distance Mask you have to create a new one and set it to “Anim Drive Multiplier” (rightclick → set target). Than you paint the parts wich are attached to the body with a high value and the further away parts with lower and lower values. For me a Range between 100 and 30 worked quite well. I only painted the very last vertices 0.
Also lowering the gravity scale value to something like 0.1 helped quite a lot.
This sounds more like a workaround that gives good enough results in specific cases. Both “anim drive multiplier” and gravity don’t have anything to do with stiffness.
