I just looked over the Snow flake file that Brian Hinton provided with
his article on particles in the new 3d e-magazine for Carrara. I noticed
that when the rectangular "snowflake" squares rest flat on the ground
plane, the transparency effect is gone. I see a flat rectangle with a
flake in the center. Is this an issue with the particle emitter?
I tried playing with the shader and with the render settings... even
with light through transparency checked and full ray tracing selected I
can still see a rectangle when the particle lays flat on the infinite
plain used as the ground surface.
The only thing that worked was to raise the ground plane up higher, so
that the particles passed clear through it before laying flat.
