Hair baby! Yeah!

Greetings XSI users. I'm a Lightwave guy who is about to venture into the world of XSI. The project ill be working on involves fur. I'm a Shave:Extreme user so I already know all the tips and tricks to style the hair and get it looking right.

I do have a couple questions about XSI's part of things. Can someone please give me a quick breakdown on XSI's anti-aliasing? What is -1,2????

I also need some info on XSI lighting. There dosent seem to be a global ambient light, is the default light that is in the scene considered the ambient? Or is there another hidden in a different panel?

I'm sure i'll have more questions as I get move involved with this project, right now im waiting on my dongle, so I cant get much farther ahead.

If anyone has questions about Shave/XSI hair ill be glad to answer them. I've been using shave for about a year now and im pretty familiar with it.

Mike

If you goto Render>Modify>Ambience you'll find the "global Ambient light" in your scene
