Working with Arnold and C4d Hair to get a visual simulation of grass - I like the results and I am really impressed with Arnold Render.

Is there something special about the children input port as when I remake this it will not work unless it uses the children node that first appears in your script.

I'm going to differ with the sentiment here. My last C4D version was R20, but I have returned with R25, and one of the biggest reasons is the improvement in the scene nodes. As an avid Rhinocerous gH modeling expert, I can appreciate what is happening here and see most of the modeling advancements here and not so much in classic C4D modeling. At first, the UI was a stark change in R25, but I have adapted and do not want to return to any classic C4D UI. I have owned all versions of C4D 8 up to 20 and now 25.
