hair and more

[india]

how can i render hair or eyelashes or pretty anything that needs alpha/transparency channels? obviously i need the diffuse, alpha/transparency channel for the textures. but when i pick the diffuse option there is no option for alpha or transparency...

Use the blend channel and don't use another material to blend, then you will get transparency

[PureSpider]

If you use a PNG with alpha, not in a separate channel, but simply a texture with transparency, then Indigo uses that
give it a try
