Yes I much prefer it in some ways to LAMH, I find it a lot easier to use, but LAMH has a great deal more support from the creator and can easily be used in Iray, unfortunately I really struggle with creating anything with it whereas I find Garibaldi pretty straightforward for creation.

I prefer it in some ways to LAMH, mostly because it appears to be more stable - loading a LAMH preset into the scene and posing around the figure will eventually lead to a DAZ Studio crash on my side (which got better since upgrading to 16 GB RAM) or the hair to suddenly be all messed up. Downside: there's next to no documentation, except the basics and as well next to no support from third party side. It's all LAMH nowadays. Generally I'd be happy if DAZ would port the hair system of Carrara over to Studio, especially since Carrara seems to be discontinued, kind of. Also, IRay support, but hair seems to be a problem with raytracers in general. Am I ranting? I'm probably ranting ... sorry for ranting.

I have it, been trying to go through videos on how to use it. Have LAMH, and there is good customer support, but not many videos, yet that I have found. It looks really good from the documentation!...

yeah it works well, don't have LAMH so I cannot compare. This was done in Iray. Hair was OBJ level 4 exported and them imported back in to an Iray scene
