Hi BK -

Great to see continued support of the plugin. Support for rendering the strand-based hair as curves (instead of tessellated geometry) is definitely my most wanted feature as well. Now that we have VDBs it's really the only major feature in DazStudio that Iray supports which the Octane plugin does not, and we have no good workarounds (Iray decal nodes aren't supported by Octane for example, but we can easily use a composite material or geoshell to achieve the same effect). Frustration with hair is the only reason I sometimes still choose to work with Iray instead of Octane.
Hi Huakiami,

Thanks for the post.

Totally agree, Jim is happy to look into strand-based hair support once the urgent task are resolved.

cheers
