I know this was a problem in previous P5 releases but I'm having a problem with getting transmapped hair to render in a reflection. I looked thru previous posts but couldn't find the solution. The settings I've tried. Transparency = 1 Transparency Edge = 1 (and 0) Transparency Falloff = 0 What else could I be missing?

Are you using the one-sided square? The normal square prop doesn't like reflections... Are you getting any reflection at all? Is it artifacted?

Hi karen! I'm using the square, "clothplane" I believe. Everything else is reflecting nicely... Are you saying the one-sided square works better? I'm getting no reflection at all.

Thanks for the info karen. I didn't consider using different squares. I'm using Koz's KyokoHair (the original one).

It's working now. When I have more time, I'll see if I can figure out what happened. But what I did was try a different hair model as you suggested to see if it would render ok (it did). Then reloaded Kyoko Hair with the intent of fiddling with some of the Material Room settings but, for grins, hit render ... now it works. Thanks for the input Karen!
