Hello,
Just recently, I attended a 3D Studio User group meeting. At the
meeting, the moderator showed me an image that had apparently made use of a new
IPAS routine called Hair. I have absolutely no idea how this IPAS operates, but
I have a hunch it is similar to Yost's Flame and Vapor principles. The effect
was convincing, and I am desperately seeking to purchase this IPAS.
If anybody has heard of this ( the image I saw was of some sort of a
jungle woman in tights and a bikini, standing in middair before a jungle scene.
Her hair was quite realistic, and blonde…), or knows where I could get the
IPAS, please reply. Thank you very much!!

It sounds like you're talking about Robert Undi's technique for using
Scatter.pxp to create realistic hair. Scatter is on our disk#6, and there's an
article about the technique in the latest (#20) issue of 3D Artist.
