One application for the entire hair card pipeline. Strands in, game-ready assets out.
The animated sequence could not load. The still shows the finished result.
Draw and generate procedural strands on a flat 2D canvas. Layers keep bangs, crown and sides in separate streams, and a stack of eleven modifiers shapes each one.
RemovesNo round trip to a separate grooming package to get a usable strand source.
Render the visible layers from directly above into thirteen texture channels, including albedo, normal, direction, height, alpha, root-to-tip and ambient occlusion.
RemovesNo manual render setup, and no hand-authoring hair textures in an image editor.
The same bake builds card topology that matches your hair bundles, with dual UV channels: UV0 for card geometry and UV1 for exact atlas sampling.
RemovesNo modelling cards by hand and no fighting a UV layout to line it up with the atlas.
Import a head model, then draw and shape cards directly on the scalp surface with six tools: Select, Draw Strips, Redraw Strip, Twist, Width Size and Width Bend.
RemovesNo exporting an unfinished asset just to position it somewhere else.
Write texture maps and mesh output together, at the scale units your target expects: centimetres for Unreal Engine 5, metres for Blender and glTF pipelines.
RemovesNo conversion step and no scale guesswork between the tool and the engine.
A bake writes up to thirteen channels. These seven are the ones that end up wired into a hair material on almost every project.

Strands, textures, cards and grooming share one project file. Modifiers and filters stay non-destructive, so a late change is an edit, not a rebuild.
Meshes are written with two UV channels and the scale units set at export, so the asset arrives at the size the target expects.
Yearly licenses, one machine activation each. The trial covers strand creation, modifiers and baking.
