Hair - MR Prim not working

[davision]

I saw someone else say on a thread about Hair, that MR Prim is not working in Vray 2.1 (on 2012-64)

I have just tried it, and I'm coming up with nothing. I have to use Geometry mode. Is there a workaround?

If you look at the plugin manager, does it list the HairVrObject2012.dlo plugin as loaded or deferred?

Good one Vlado. It was deferred. I clicked on Load and now it works.

How can I force it active upon startup?

Also will this be a problem on render slaves?

If you downloaded the V-Ray 2.1 right after the official release, try re-downloading the installation and it should be fine.

Best regards,

Thanks. That did it.
