Help with python and baking hair

Support Particles and Physics Simulations

If you take a look at this bug report I tried to submit about bake all dynamics not baking hair, could anyone help me figure out what he is talking about?

Philip said there is a “code comment” /* skip hair & keyed particles */ and if its enabled the hair will bake when clicking Bake all Dynamics.
Could somone PLEASE elaborate? Like can I go in and enable it?

I’ve been working a lot with hair but I have to bake several systems and its very tedious. I’d like to at least be able to try to enable hair to bake with the bake all dynamics. Thank you in advance for any help with this!

you will need to edit this file

by making your own build and go look for that file and disable the

“continue;” using this “//”

//continue;

there is only 2 line like this
not sure which one is the right one to edit. i edited both and it worked.
and then build blender

getting the nvidia GPU to work for render is hard though.

you can just skip it and just launch the release version after you are done baking
