Rendering the hair
When you modify hair attributes, many of these changes are not visible in
the scene view; the Paint Effects hair must be rendered in the Maya Software
renderer. In the next steps you render Marions hair as it is now, which allows
you to see what aspects of the hair need work to make it look more realistic.
Before rendering, be sure to set the appropriate Render Settings.
To render Paint Effects hair using the Maya Software renderer
1 Modify the Render Settings for Paint Effects.
Click the Render Settings
button on the Status Line. The Render
Settings window appears.
Select Maya Software from the Render using drop-down list.
In the Maya Software tab, go to the Paint Effects Rendering Options
section and turn on Oversample and Oversample post filter. These
help achieve a better look for the Paint Effects rendering. The option
Enable stroke rendering is already on by default.
Click Close to close the Render Settings window.
2 Before rendering be sure to display the hair systems Current Position
(Hair > Display > Current Position).
3 Click the Render Current Frame
button on the Status Line.

below.
