We are seeing inconsistencies when rendering V-Ray hair objects depending on whether Embree is on or off and with smoothing on and off.
Each of the permutations renders very different. I would expect them to all look pretty much the same besides the curve smoothness.
Embree on with no smoothing is particularly bad, with nasty artifacts.
Embree OFF
Embree ON
Embree OFF with smoothcurves
Embree ON with smoothcurves
This is Houdini 18.5.499 with vray_adv_50050_houdini18.5.499_c7de91e_12365
