3ds max 2012 problem with 'Best' Transparency setting

barnesy

Hey Polycount, I have made a set of next gen eyes and in order to make the iris reflect layer work I have to set the global opacity to 0 and transparency to best.

When I do this the alpha breaks on the hair, I was just wondering if there is any workaround I could use or any settings that I need to change in order to stop the hair going insane?

Here is a pic of what is going wrong, any help on this will be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance

Give this a shot. Or maybe try separating the objects.
You only need to worry about the gamma if you have gamma correction enabled.

Thanks Monster, I have tried creating a new material for it, changing the map channel and breaking off/attaching each of the hair planes but it doesn't seem to sort out the problem.

It only happens when I set the transparency to best which sucks.

I managed to fix this by turning off transparency ironically haha
