Hey girls and guys, can someone give me a hint what I am missing ?
Tried using a feather template on a groom node (create & output feathers) but it won't show any feathers for me ??

To me everything looks correct ?

Are the templates and the groom nodes in distinct object at the /obj level?

You might have to enable "Shade open Curves" on the object containing the groom node.

Yea got it enabled on both, the template obj and the groom obj, disabled it, just for testing on the groom object, got this here (crashes quite a bit, this version)

Also downloaded the latest nvidia studio driver for my card (gtx1080ti) since I thought it might be about that (regarding crashes)

Alright, figured it out, instead of having the guide groom node inside the automatically created groom obj I added it in a new geo node and enabled shade open curves in viewport and it works.

Guess one could adjust the groom geo node which gets created by the shelf tool since it isn't obvious why it doesn't work.

Thanks for your help

Ah yes, I'll make sure the Guide Groom object can at least display feathers. Thanks for figuring that out.
