Ornatrix 3dsmax: Hair from Guides modifier

Hair from Guides modifier has no entry in the docs. Can someone please explain what "Instanced Strands" does?

magilla	cool, now can you explain what instanced strands do - cos it doesn't do what it says in the docs ;P If I turn it on all hairs disappear in viewport and render

EPHERE	I don't think they work as intended right now. The basic idea is to get the same guide (few vertices) to be instanced by many hairs. This would save memory during generation of the dense hair structure when rendering. I plan to do some revamping of instancing soon though. Marsel Khadiyev (Software Developer, EPHERE Inc.)
