I'm using "A line bob long" Hair from reallusion store, and the shader just refuses to work in Blender! It looks fine in CC and Iclone, and the shader parameters work fine for editing the color, roots, highlights and all that. But when I export to Blender the Hair comes in solid black. 75% of original size (was 667x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 667x19) - Click to enlargeEverything works fine inside CC and Iclone.Lighting and everything works just fine.75% of original size (was 667x19) - Click to enlarge Now in blender the Hair color, roughness, transparency, etc. don't show up. Never had this Issue before. Anyone have any ideas what's going on? I'm at a loss... Blender Error Hair Import Shader

If the data is blank it will cause the entire hair material to be set to the vertex colour parameter (which is likely to be black if it hasn't been set). Vertex colours should default to white, which would cause no additional blending, but I've seen some meshes where they are set to black. Try setting the "Vertex Color Strength" parameter to 0.0 in all the hair materials for that mesh, from the material parameters panel: 75% of original size (was 667x19) - Click to enlarge
