Note likely to upgrade to 9, but perhaps the next version of Pro if the money is right and the features are worthwhile.

My interest is the Hair Room. I'm improving in my use of the hairstyling tool, but I'd like to see some major investment in time and thought with that. Even though I don't do animations (at this point, anyway), I almost always use dynamic hair now, and the ability to style it more intuitively would be a huge step forward.

I also think that there is something that needs to be done with how the dynamic hair relates to materials. While I understand that something very thin and semi-transparent is going to interact with light differently than a big solid block, the disparity between regularly-modelled stuff and strand hair on the shading front is just too much. I don't know what it would take to correct that, but it needs to be done, especially for those of us who want to use more and finer strands for better realism.

And of course, more stuff from Bagginsbill I'll take anytime. I agree that he would be good to let loose in the material room, maybe develop some really good quality presets. His freebies are great, but they're more involved to set up than most folk are ready for.
