I've been having an issue with alphas in max when making overlapping planes for hair. What happens is the transparency will only work if the planes are overlapping in a particular order (so transparency will work if plane A is overlapping plane B, but not the other way around).

…as opposed to collapsing to the average distance? I can't simply remove the loop since that will also delete the UVs. The best way I found was to use Swiftloop to slide it over manually to the corresponding loop then 'weld all' on selected verts. Works well enough but was wondering if there was a faster 1-2 click…
I've created a VR scene and want to bake any information into one single texture so that I can use Unity's unlit shader for maximum performance (Android and iOS). Is there a way to bake specular highlights or reflections? I know that these would normally depend on the camera position but there is no camera when using…
