If you're using subsurface scattering, you need to plug in a value for the opacity channel. I believe 1 is completely opaque and 0 is complete translucent and 0.5 is semi-transparent. You also want to check the strength of your light source. A very bright lightsource makes the SSS more obvious whereas a weaker or duller…

Hi, I'm currently using Maya 2015 on a pretty new computer. I am using viewport 2.0 when I am animating and the frame rate jump between 5 and 20 fps, even though I set the animation to be 30 fps.
