束发曲线

The Clump Hair Curves node gathers nearby hair curves together around designated guide curves, creating clump formations commonly seen in real hair, fur, and grass. It is a key step in grooming workflows for adding realism and structure by simulating how strands naturally group due to moisture, product, or physical interaction.

输入

几何数据

The input geometry containing the hair curves to be clumped.

系数

Controls the overall strength of the clumping effect. A value of 0.0 applies no clumping, while 1.0 fully pulls curves toward their guides.

形状

Defines how the clumping influence changes along the length of each curve. A value of 0.0 applies a constant strength, while 0.5 results in a linear falloff from root to tip.

发梢扩散

Adds random variation to the positions of curve tips, preventing perfect convergence and helping clumps look more natural.

束发偏移

Applies a random directional offset to entire clumps, introducing subtle variation between groups.

距离衰减

Defines how the influence of each guide curve decreases with distance. A value of 0.0 disables distance-based falloff, making all nearby curves equally affected.

距离阈值

Sets the maximum distance from a guide at which clumping has an effect. Curves farther than this threshold will not be influenced by that guide.

随机种

Controls the randomization used for offsets and variation. Changing this value alters the random distribution of clumping while keeping the same parameters.

维持长度

When enabled, maintains the original length of each curve during deformation. When disabled, curves may stretch or shrink slightly as they are pulled toward guides.

引导映射

引导编号

A map that specifies which guide curve acts as the center for each clump. If provided, this takes priority over any existing guide_curve_index attribute, and the Guide Distance and Guide Mask inputs are ignored.

引导距离

The minimum distance between selected guide curves when generating a new guide map. Larger values produce fewer, larger clumps.

引导遮罩

Defines which curves can be used as guides during automatic guide map creation.

现有的引导映射

When enabled, uses the existing guide map attribute if it is already available. If disabled and Guide Index is not provided, a new guide map is generated using Guide Distance and Guide Mask. Creating the guide map separately allows for finer control over guide placement and grouping.

输出

几何数据

The resulting geometry with clumped hair curves.

引导映射

引导编号

The guide index map used for this operation. If a new guide map was generated by this node, it is stored and provided through this output for reuse in subsequent operations.
