I’m trying to learn Blender’s hair particles by following a video tutorial. The tutorial uses an older version of Blender (I’m using 2.8). When adding particles with the Add tool, the tutorial adds particles that look like this:
There’s obviously a lot more hair particles to control in my version. I would like to limit the number of hair particles to make it more like the tutorial – it would make combing much easier. I assume I’m missing some setting which would keep the hair particles more sparse, but I’ve been unable to figure out what that setting is.
When you’re placing the hairs, are you clicking and dragging? Or are you clicking individually for each hair? Because you should be doing the latter. The add hair brush will just spit them out if you click and drag.
The tutorial video was a sped up time-lapse video, so it was difficult to see that the presenter was clicking individually for each hair, not clicking and dragging. Now that you brought that up, I watched the video again and that’s what’s going on
