I am having problems with hair:
First of all the hair is rendered with straight segments instead of smooth curves - see the linked pic.
Second - the width has some kind of minimal limit and I can't get it any thinner regardless of how low I set the Fur:Width setting in the particles panel - see the linked pic again.
I am linking an image and a test scene.

Interestingly when I started the project I was using Vray 1.5 (vray core 1.9???) and the hair thickness was fine. Now I am using VRay 2.0 (V-Ray core version is 2.00.01) and the hair is way to thick with the exact same settings

For me this is the last big issue with the exporter (at least for my current project) and the last thing that's holding me back from finishing it. Otherwise I am very pleased with the results I managed to achieve with Blender/Vray connection.
