vertex shader method for moving (more realistic) hair?

[Archangel35757]

Could the vertex Shader method demonstrated in this video (and its more detailed method description link) be used to do some minor hair motion for cutscene cinematics???

Looks like UE4 uses this method for grass, scrub-brush, tree limbs interaction.

 

@@Xycaleth, Can this be added to OpenJK or rend2?

Might be able to do vertex deform in shader, but it'd look stupid playing the whole time.

FYI you linked to UDK not UE4.
