Hi,
any change of getting a rough explanation how to get random strand color variation using the vray mtl Hair 3 and also tip transparency?

I know I should be using Vray Hair sampler, but i can't find any option to make changes .

Thanks

The hair sampler texture has a few outputs that you can use in different ways, f.e. by connecting one of those outputs to the V coordinate of a V ramp texture. You'll need to do the connections through the connection editor.

Best regards,
