Hair colour issue

[Indulge Me]

Hi,

‌

Left image shows Daz's render of Brooklyn HD with FE Punk Hair Vol 2, default lighting. On the right I've imported (Easy Import) to Blender (3.6) and rendered with Cycles. The image on the right is kind-of patchy and has very dark areas. In Eevee the hair is all blonde, looks good (except Eevee things of course).

‌

Did I make as mistake here or is some tweak needed?

[Indulge Me]

Sorry, messed up attachment. Should be OK now.

If it looks ok in eevee but dark in cycles you probably have to increase the transparency bounces to 64 or more, depending on the hair complexity. Let us know.

Also be sure to get 1.7.2 since there are many fixes now.

Yes, 64 worked great. Thanks Alessandro. Ticket can be closed.

‌

If anyone else comes here, it’s the setting Transparent in Max Bounces of Light Paths in Render Properties. I was initially hunting around in the shader for a setting.
