I'm using maya 2017 to create interactive groom splines for hair.
In the modelling menu set ( with the scalp geometry selected) I choose:
Generate> Create interactive groom splines
It all works beautifully , until I try to render it. Nothing shows up in the render. I tried using maya software render at first. That didn't work.
But actually I want to use Vray, because I've already made my skin shader using Vray.
By following this tutorial on You tube

I assigned a vray Hair material by selecting the Xgen node in the outliner , but that doesn't work either.
It simply won't render.
Am I missing something?
Feedback greatly appreciated.
