Whoops! I assumed any prop parented to a figure is part of the figure. Turns out the script is being fooled because of this, I think.

Try unparenting, or perhaps just work with the hair alone. Once you have it shaded, you can then re-connect it to the figure.

I'll add this to my list of bugfixes.

There is a circuit (upper left) that is making subsurface scattering. It is unaffected by the AO, so the cavities are reddish. Hehehe.

I have made some progress on the new UI. Not ready to use at all yet, but I've learned a lot about how I want the experience to be, now that I know what is possible with flex.

Today I was building extensions to matmatic to work with VSS. You can pick the different shader modules and just tick-tick-tick to enable each feature. You can mix and match these features to make a simple or a complex shader, with only a few clicks. No need to learn my scripting language - it's all visual.

Once the shader is built, you can then load it into VSS. From there you have all the various parameters to tune the shader.  You never have to go into the material room again.

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
