I have been giving the V-Ray demo a go for a while now (for Maya) and I have to say I love it. I do have a concern though, and I am sure you have hundreds of people asking about this. I am curios to know the time-line and or possible plans for Maya Hair/Fur support within a reasonable amount of time. This is a major aspect for me, and it would be comforting that It is in development before purchasing. Thank you, Robert ---

Hi Vlado, are you able to tell us if it will be integrated into Maya’s Fur system or will it be part of the shader (aka VrayFur shader?) Thanks. ---

We plan to have both; VRayFur is a simple and effective tool in many cases; for character design obviously the Maya hair and fur tools are superior. Best regards, Vlado ---

Hey Chaosgroup, Any updates on hair support? My finger is literally hovering over the buy button. Hair/Fur is critical for me at this point. Thanks guys, Robert ---

Excellent! looking forward to playing with it this weekend. Btw, is it possible to get a password for the release log rars? I’m often downloading the whole package just to see what’s new, would be nice to avoid that / take the strain off your servers. [bard@hellobard.com](mailto:bard@hellobard.com) ---

Works really well and is incredibly fast! 10000 hairs on one face rendered at under 10 minutes on a Macbook. ---
