As odd as this sounds; if you make a box and put the transparency that is not working on it, it may fix the object you really want it to work on.

In Vue 4.2 or Vue 4.52 Pro (you don't say what version of Vue you are using) you may open the eyelashes in the material editor and give more transparency. You maybe also have to change something with the highlights. They are often black in Poser and should be white in Vue. The eye may need some more "shine" too, to look more "alife". Poser transparency/highlights etc. are not exactly the same as the ones used by Vue.

The eyelash material has no shininess and a refractive index of 1.0. The flare settings are set at zero. The material preview in the material editor looks fine its only when I render that I seee a problem. I tried making the preview object a box (- is that what you meant, Zicculus?) but I didn't notice anything new. I have spent a lot of time fiddling with this without succes so I was hoping someone on this list might know a solution or at least give an explanation of Vues behaviour. The eye is shiny - I noticed that Poser import doesn't bring in glassy/glossy objects properly - you just cant see a highlight at this angle . I did say I use Vue 4.22 - this is an update of Vue standard which I downloaded about 2 weeks ago.

Of course, to make a box of the preview will not help at all LOL. Burnart, can you upload your scene somewere for us to download, so we can try it for you? Or even send it to me, zipped, if it is not bigger then 3 MB to gebe@renderosity.com? Thanks, Guitta
