VRayHairMtl vs VRayMtl

Hi,

I’m currently doing very short horse fur and I was wondering: what do you guys use? The VRayHairMtl or a regular VRayMtl for greater/different control?

VRayHairMtl is specifically designed for hair/fur primitives, it has many advantages over regular VRayMtl in regards to hair-rendering.

Yeah I realized that the VRayMtl is way slower to render. Still - having some more control over the highlight attenuation such as GGX gives for example would be nice. But then again I never did hair before…

We have a new hair shader coming up so things will get better.

Best regards,
Vlado

Cool! Any rough ETA by any chance? ^^
