ok I got it working by turning on hair geometry option, but how do you render out just the hair pass with a matte shadow shader ?( if there is one ?)
Thanks

The show geometry is in the hair modifier panel right down at the bottom in the display section.
Doesn't work for me though.
Only way I could get hair showing is to use the convert to mesh button in the tools section.
Which is pretty bloody useless as the massive meshes end up using all the v ram.
And the hair mesh is no longer editable in the hair modifier.
