Hair and GI

[frankhill]

Hello, I'm becoming crazy for it, why Hair its not viewed by GI?! I thought to lighting it with HDRI but I can't see light on it must be converted? or rendered with different building?

Hi
should be enough choosing Raytrace as renderer in the Hair Render options

cheers

As said by Visual, choose raytracing and warning about memory usage.

This is my first attempt at rendering hair (and fur) and raytracing did the trick. If you need to add an object buffer to the hair, raytracing alone won't work. You need to add atmosphere for it to recognize the hair properly for the object buffer shape.
