Problems with LOOK AT MY HAIR 1.5

Is anyone else having problems with keyboard commands not working? No matter what I do, I can't delete a follicle after it is placed. They strongly suggest docking the pane in one of the side-bars, but it will not. Two pages of action boxes come up at every step I take. It crashes Daz 4.7 constantly. Only exports Fiber Hair; will not export Render Man. I cant get the hair color to follow the chosen root and tip colors to the exported hair. Illustrations in manual for 1.5 do not match functions shown in boxes displayed in 4.7. Downloaded and printed entire manual and followed step by step; still crashes 4.7.
Is there a separate manual for 4.7, or different keyboard functions?
Seemed like an excellent way to make my half cat, half human lady, but...

Greetings,
LAMH is extremely unstable. Once you figure out the delicate workflow that doesn't crash, it produces very nice results, but getting there...wow. :down: I'm reluctant to even open it, anymore, because it's depressing trying to avoid the crashes, but it's also one of the only ways to do certain things.
Also, make sure you're running the latest version. There's a beta (1.5.15) available from http://lamh.ovbi.org/ but I don't know offhand if that's newer or older than the version that gets downloaded by Install Manager.

I completely avoid using it, it's far to crashy at the best of times. Garibaldi hair is one you might try. I've used it before, and it's quite stable.
Thank you both for replying. It's good to know I'm not the only one it hates! Went to the website suggested in the LAMH editor; no page,, then You tube, guess what, no posts since 2012. I will look up the Garibaldi hair and see if it will work in 4.7. That seems to be a recurring theme. I joined the PC+ thing and 75% of the products are not for 4.7. It's great they are $$1.99, but if they are not compatible....
Hello, I was going to answer to the request you left on our web site (BTW, you left it two hours ago). The web site (www.furrythings.com) is there and you left a message through, so I am not sure what issues you found with it.
I was going to suggest that perhaps you still have installed the LAMH Player and if so, remove it otherwise will cause issues with the full version.
Here's a link to Garibaldi here at Daz as an alternative.

I don't know what the LAMH player is. What I have installed, is what came with the purchase. If you are talking about the free version, I never had it. You advised someone else that version 1.5.15 was the latest for Windows 64 bit, and had fewer problems in 4.7. Where can I buy that?
To Madbat:
What I want is a half cat, half human, woman with short fur everywhere except her breasts, crotch, hands, and feet. Garibaldi Hair does not say it can do that. It seems you need to select a hair preset, before, you can use it. I wish I could buy such a preset; I have three book covers to make and at least four "Louack" women to create. Too bad someone doesn't make a resource to merge them all!
BTW Alessandro_AM Washington D.C. "is" the capital of the United States. Can't view the page suggested above, because I can't register. BTW, are you the same person selling both LAMH and Garibaldi hair?
Greetings,
@aidanstoneauthor - If you've already bought LAMH, you can get the 1.5.15 download at their beta site, http://lamh.ovbi.org/ and it is marginally more stable than the version that installs from DAZ Install Manager. If registration is being picky about the location, just pick a different location, it's just crappy forum software.
To be clear, I'm not Alessandro, but I can say that they aren't the same person as the author of Garibaldi hair. Garibaldi hair doesn't just use presets, it also allows creating them, which is what you want.
I am neutral about the whole LAMH/Garibaldi thing, I own LAMH but I avoid it most of the time for aforementioned reasons. I don't own Garibaldi, but I hear good things.
The cat/human thing is entirely doable, although I'd suggest poking around for some of the feline characters for Genesis and Genesis 2 in the store. I did a foxgirl similarly, which was the one big thing I've ever tried to do with LAMH, and the source of my frustrations.

I've never got LAMH to work so I can't comment on the process there, but in Garabaldi you can paint where you want the fur. He has a link to his website, I'd recommend having a look at his documentation. The downside is, he seems to have gone a bit silent recently. There is plenty of knowledgeable people on the Garibaldi forum however.
To Alessandro's credit, he IS very available on the forums, I just get PO'd that his product has never worked well at all on my system. Makes me a bit grumpy. Again, to his credit, his presets for various products (including cat people) DO look good, but they get crashy when I use them. Rawart has a morph package for Genesis (I think) that has LAMH presets. I do have recurring lion-people characters but I've never furred them up yet. In order to get them to work the way I want I'll have to paint my own textures and fur maps to go with different outfits. (you don't want the fur poking through clothing)
And yes, the capital of the U.S.A. is Washington D.C. I also can't (re)register because it doesn't accept the proper capital.
Greetings,
Oh, CRAP, I forgot about the registration check thingie... I don't recall, I tried a half-dozen or so ways (with/without '.', etc.) before I hit on just the right combination of letters.
A quick check tells me it's just 'Washington'. It's bad programming, but screw it, it's just something you need to get past, not a citizenship quiz. :)

p.s. Spoken as someone who LIVES in Washington. The STATE, not the capital. ;)

My wife intervened my frustration and suggested using just Washington. It worked, if 4,000 miles away from DC. I'm starting to sound like a troll in this thread and that's just not me. I'm sure I've POed Alessandro. Hope he accepts me into the community board at the website! LAMH will cover the figure I have, the way I want, using simple 'curling'. I can put longer hair on her head using several presets I own.
Thanks for responding...again!
Hello aidanstoneauthor, no way you could have PO me, really. Instead, I'd like to apologize (not only with you but all the folks here that seem to have issues) for the quirks and bugs that are still around with LAMH. As time has passed, I got several feedback: there are folks that are pleased and can work efficiently with it, other that get occasional crashes on certain specific operations and can definitely live with it, and some other that find it so unstable that it's difficult to use.
To my *defense* (our, since LAMH has been developed with Kendall Sears), the program is so complex and has to take into account so many DAZ Studio features and updates, product content and various hardware configurations that it's difficult to track things down.
We have a beta program that we encourage to join as it allows us to gather feedback and thus help debugging issues, but I do understand also that not everyone is willing or has the time to undertake such task. It goes without saying that indeed feedback would really help us making it better.
In any case, remember that should you be unabled to use the product you can return it within 30 days.
If you decide to try and use it, you can always contact me directly at '[email protected]' for support. From what I've read so far, you seem to have issues with furring a simple character, which even with the known issues and bugs around seems quite odd to happen. If you wish to contact me, I could try and understand what steps are you following to produce the crash and hopefully help you out.
BTW, we are in the process of developing a new LAMH framework that will *cooperate* with DAZ Studio in a different and less intrusive way, thus allowing to get rid of all the instabilities inherited by the plugin architecture. More info to come hopefully soon.
Just a note that latest LAMH Windows 64 bit version is indeed 1.5.15 and it's the one you get from the DAZ DIM.
There are no newer beta's available at this point.
