In order for the
fur to react to dynamic forces on hair curves, dynamic hair systems
must be attached to fur. Attaching a hair system to a fur description associates
the dynamic hair curves as a fur curve attractor set so
that they affect the fur descriptions attached to them.
NoteOnly hair created
from NURBS curves can be used to influence fur. When creating hair
that you want to use to influence fur, make sure you select NURBS Curves or Paint
Effects and NURBS Curves from the Output list.
