– Smooth Surface modifier : Use OpenSubDiv to dynamically subdivide base mesh
– Transfer Normals modifier : Copy normals of base surface onto hair
– Reduced storage requirements for hair surface dependencies, allows faster work with polygonal base meshes and smaller memory usage
– Strand group patterns : Use a pattern to filter operators for a range of strand groups when needed, instead of a single strand – group
– Strand group blending : Blend between strand groups in various operators
– Multiple hair strand groups: a single strand can now belong to multiple strand groups, allowing a greater control over various effects.
