Final gathering, I’d expect some real nasty render times but I
did try AO with some success a while back. The theory at least would be to do
an AO pass but there are some issues with the way hair transparency works that
could present a puzzle for you. Check it out carefully. AO still isn’t fast but
it’s sort of workable if you’ve time and patience and it definitely adds to the
look.

Subject: Hair and FG
Before i set off down this road which - to me appears to be
madness - i was wondering if anyone had actually lit hair with FG and got
results that were A/ good enough for comercials clients and B/ rendered quicker
than hours a frame.
Any experiences most welcome before I tie up
our renderfarm for weeks...
