Usage Notes

The asset uses the Groom hair system; please ensure the Groom plugin is enabled in the settings.
Hair is bound to the model; make sure "Support Compute Skin Cache" is enabled in the settings.
When importing the project, ensure the file structure remains intact to avoid missing resources.
We recommend adjusting the brightness and reflectivity of hair materials based on the scene's lighting conditions for optimal appearance.
