Donwload not included, so not for Pudding Factory: New Hair CC by Peggy

[minx]

Her updated version does seem to fix whatever the problem was. I installed it this afternoon and played for a few hours with no crashes. I'll let you guys know if I do run across one though.

There are 50% more vertices in the second release than the first, shooting the "too many vertices" theory in the foot. TS3 meshes typically have 2X - 4X as many vertices as analogous TS2 meshes did. The other change I noticed was the first package assigned the hair to 100% "b__HeadNew__", the second splits the assignments between "b__HeadNew__" and "b__Spine_2".

I have been curious myself why it crashes, because some things may be user education issues, things that maybe didn't make a difference in TS2 but do now. and some things may be "policeable" (via error or warnings) in the plugins themselves.

It was a brave test. While there are certainly a lot of old grievances rehashed, I know all too well from bitter experience that just because it works in your machine does not guarantee that it will not be an embarrassing fooparoonie.

I also hate her site I have to open it in IE for it to load properly.

Also maybe the 50% more vertices is due to adding LOD meshes.

Updated Peggy hair is still going strong with no crashes since installing 2 days ago, even after updating to the new patch.
