How long did it take to render and what hardware was it on?

the plugin only exports the geometry in the form:
number of vertices,
<x0, y0, z0>,
<x1, y1, z1>,
...
number of normals, // = nb faces * 3, it is uncompressed
<nx0, ny0, nz0>,
<nx1, ny1, nz1>,
...
number of colors, // = nb faces * 3, it is uncompressed too...
<r0, g0, b0>,
<r1, g1, b1>,
...
number of faces,
<idv1_0, idv2_0, idv3_0>,
<idv1_1, idv2_1, idv3_1>,
...
that's all...I have a macro to read this and to store it in various
arrays, another macro to trace it as a mesh2 object, and a macro to add
fur on it....the solution I took for the fur is a cone...I did yesterday
at night a new version that allows to define a "gravity vector" and
various parameters for the maximum length of the "hair" so I can have
bended shapes...I didn't have time to do a nice render and to make the
hair looks good so...next time !
