Problem with hair shadders after packaged - paragon assets

[lbombonat]

I am using the paragon assets, and their hairs, all the models, dont work in shadows, when receiving direct light they work well, but when in shadows or indirect light they become totally black.

It happens just if the material is setting to hair shadder model. And just happens in packaged project, in editor it works fine, maybe the problem is some setting in build, but i did’nt find something related to that yet.

this was solved, just enable the hairs shader plugin.

hairs shader plugin

Hi there,
What is the name of this plugin?

You need to active Support Compute Skin Cache in your project settings and active the plugins “Alembic Groom Importer” and “Groon”.

You can see more information in that page of documentation: Hair Rendering in Unreal Engine | Unreal Engine 5.0 Documentation
