Did you check the falloff? It should be zero.

you need to set the reflective colour to black to get rid of the wispy bit ;), this is poser4 right? if it's poser5 then I'm not sure what you do. Rob

In the materials editor (drop down menu Render/materials)make sure you have highlight size set to 0%

if the above don't fix it, go to photoshop and check your transMap, if you have your black set to anything less than 100% it will show 99% black looks pure to the eye, but not to poser!

Your transmap must have a black background and the transparancy settings set to 100%.

Heh.. When I first looked at the pic I thought "Hey, thats a cool lookin dress!".. Then I read your message.

Poser 5 vs. Poser 4 shouldn't matter. To clarify Kendra's comment, Did you set the MIN transparency to 100%? That is, don't set just the MAX transparency, make sure BOTH are 100%? If that's not it, then as mentioned, your transmap black must not be quite zero.

Yes, like ssshaw says - make sure your transparency MIN & MAX both are set to 100% and having the transmap black is vital too :)

I got that same effect and my falloff wasn't at zero

OH - one thing (maybe) - finally occurred to me make sure you UNcheck the box that says - apply texture to highlight (or similar) If this comes late and/or you've gotten it figured out, sorry for me sounding dumb here G
