Hi! Thank you a lot for answering!
This is my first time trying to use this shaders so i'm sorry if my explanation isn't very good!
When i render some of the ink lines in the pictures look very fuzzy, and i figured that maybe it have to put specific rendering settings apart from playing with the shader values? I was using lines with a sampling value of 1 to 2, so i think it's weird lines get distorted.

i was following this guide http://softimage.wiki.softimage.com/xsi ... m#Rfl40771

I just finished a small project that included some additional toon rendering for the outlines, but didn't experience any issues.
Not even after -not- using MR for many years ;)

Just be sure not to forget the settings in the camera shader, in addition to the render settings themselves.
If all fails, just render the toon outlines separate in a pass, and crank up all values higher than normal.

Maybe you can post some pictures to show the issue, and share the settings?
