Hi folks,
Anything Grows 2.5 is now available. For the most part it's just a simple bug patch, but we've sneaked a couple new features in there for the animators! There is a new Bones Mode that goes back to the original unmodified mesh to calculate strand placement and size so that Anything Grows now plays nicely with Carrara's bones. Additionally Gravity can be applied to work locally or globally so when your character does somersaults, the fur droops in the right direction.

Check out the Anything Grows and Bones tutorial at

and check the QuickTime movie of the final render at
