Replicator and Subsurface Shaders? - Polyloop

Is there a problem with subsurface shaders in the replicator? is there anyway to overcome this?

Do you have an example of the problem?

Daz has confirmed a bug where replicated objects do not receive the sub-surface scattering properties of the original. A similar bug has been reported with replicated lights not retaining all the applied effects of the original.
Here is a link to the forum thread.

Yes its a bug in Carrara...if you want to see create a sphere, apply SSS and use the replicator to create more sphere...the new ones dont have the SSS, you have to apply by hand...

Thanks for the info.

I have that problem some time ago

Only the replicated light have lensflare, but after "break" the replicated objets all works fine

Break?

Ok the correct words are

-create real instances-

The original ball have SSS enabled the replicated balls dont follow the original SSS, but if I create the real instances (left) the SSS shader looks fine

sorry I wrote break because in Hex you "break the symmetry or the dynamic geometry"
