![Ivory Simple Minimalist Travel Magazine (4)](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/krafton/original/2X/1/19c0a4c7810da8b23b9d304e153b0b10a9db92ab.jpeg) There’s a Modding Contest going on for Inzoi in Curseforge, if you didn’t know, now you know! I wanted to share some tips in the light of the ongoing contest in case it helps anyone. I’m also working on a tutorial to minimize the detached head preset glitch until we get a hotfix a tutorial for eyes presets and beards! They are not perfect, but they work. I will upload them soon. Here’s the tips! ### :custom_light: **DELETING VERTEX GROUPS** First, if your hair is not long-long, on the lower right panel where your vertex are when weight painting, delete everything up until stomach (clicking on “-”). - Delete Upperarm\_biceps and Upperarm\_tricepts for both arms, too. These give more trouble than aid. - Delete all the vertex related to the fingers (from index\_metacarpal\_slide\_r to hand\_r and the same for the left) - Delete all the vertex with “lowerarm\_” on their name ![HAIR WEIGHT PAINTING_PHOTO 1](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/krafton/original/2X/d/d9316539aed7af4093a22c0e4490d6d95a390790.jpeg) ### :custom_light: SMOOTHING/ MIXING WEIGHTS On top of the Blender UI go to Brush and select “Mix”, like this: ![HAIR WEIGHT PAINTING_PHOTO 2](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/krafton/original/2X/a/a0d253243c2ee53d6c2e911b9a940ab88924ea69.png) Now, I will go directly to our habitual suspects and “mix” the weight in these vertex until they look uniformly mid-blue. _trust the process!_ clavicle\_scap\_r clavicle\_r clavicle\_scap\_l clavicle\_l upperarm\_twistCor\_02\_r upperarm\_twistCor\_01\_r uppearm\_fwd\_r uppearm\_fwd\_l upperarm\_twistCor\_02\_l upperarm\_twistCor\_01\_l If any front part of your hear has weight on “uppearm\_out\_” or “clavicle\_out” substract **all the weight that’s not inmediatly nearby the shoulder.** ![HAIR WEIGHT PAINTING_PHOTO 3](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/krafton/original/2X/9/9b5405601f510ae9236650a83a6012c504e0d343.jpeg) ### **THE REAL MVPs** Now we are going to work with the vertex that are going to make our hairs look good even without physics. - spine\_04: ![HAIR WEIGHT PAINTING_PHOTO 4](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/krafton/original/2X/3/3f14e1981068e3a7069a81b7d300886011285d19.jpeg) ![HAIR WEIGHT PAINTING_PHOTO 5](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/krafton/original/2X/d/ddaf1dbc2d6124d564199672acc5d4deaf209d7f.jpeg) - **neck\_01:** Make the cursor smaller and smooth it out evenly, until you get a pale blue but only where the hair should bend with the neck - **neck\_02:** Make the cursor smaller and smooth it out evenly, until you get a pale blue but only where the hair should bend with the neck ![HAIR WEIGHT PAINTING_PHOTO 6_before](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/krafton/original/2X/9/9a9ad5107b7cfb76f463eb658e2e0b51e5ac42ff.jpeg) ![HAIR WEIGHT PAINTING_PHOTO 5](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/krafton/original/2X/d/ddaf1dbc2d6124d564199672acc5d4deaf209d7f.jpeg) - **Head:** this one is quite important, as it’s always abruptly cut/interrupted, which will make your hair bend awkwardly with zoi’s movements. First we will “mix” the weight from the tips to a bit more upwards: ![HAIR WEIGHT PAINTING_PHOTO 8](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/krafton/original/2X/d/d2ac3096d2acc35c707a768953e6068594aa073f.jpeg) ![HAIR WEIGHT PAINTING_PHOTO 9](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/krafton/original/2X/2/26a1151364c909220f66733e02863e23b26d1a7f.jpeg) ### **Now we will add / substract to get it to look more gradual. This will be easy as you will see your hair going back to the shape it should have.** ### **Test it while moving your zoi, so you can see if you need to make adjustements on any of the vertex groups mentioned above.** ![HAIR WEIGHT PAINTING_PHOTO 10](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/krafton/original/2X/6/672759ed1d4c0e448580424d8523dc7b5e4adb69.jpeg) ## I hope this was helpful in anyway! If you have questions let me know. ## Happy zoiventures! :custom_heart: ---
