Hi, I have seen your scene file. I assume u are using 2013. "StrandAge" gets updated at every frame without any problem.

By default the "GenerateStrandTrails"is using the "StrandAge" attribute with an fcurve to drive the size of each strand over the course of their duration. Now when I use the "Resample Strand Trails", the "StrandAge" attribute doesn't update, receiving 1 value for all the strands. Of course this causes the size of the strands to be even. I don't understand what causes this, since I've gone in to the "Resample Strand Trails" compound and I cannot find a direct connection to the "StrandAge", e.g there isn't a set data node with this attribute. I've been reading about how to resample/smooth the strands for the last 4 days but most of the other methods didn't work for me. Is there out there anyone that might have faced the same issues when resampling the strands? One last note, I am connecting the "Resample Strand Trails" before the "GenerateStrandTrails", because that was the only order to get to work. If you need any more info about the set up, please let me know and i will update the post. Thank you !
