It would be the most powerfull cg hair/fur renders in the whole universe !!! I've tried it using polygon conversion but the mesh is too heavy for maya (OBJ : 1.5 Go for 70000 hairs, more than 20 Go Ram used to create the mesh). So, the idea is to convert guides into polygon at render time inside maxwell render.

Maybe, one day...

It's the same thing with Max's Hair and Fur modifier. "Render as geometry" isn't a good option.
