PNG show and reflection problem

[holmes1977]

Hi all
Im having a problem with a PNG billboard. The PNG image is the woman. You can see that the shadows and reflection from this are wrong. I think they look like they are a smaller version of the image and are tiling. This has happened on all models I have tested. So I expect its something simple I'm missing. Ive also posted in the SU forums cos Im in a mega hurry to finish this job

Im using 1.49.01

Cheers for any help.

There's some 2 sided or reflect on backside or something like that checkbox for the billboard material. I'm not at my vray computer, I'll check tomorrow if I have a chance. It might only be in the transparency material option. Try your material with an alpha map instead.

Try to apply the same material from the front (with the eyedropper) to the back of the billboard. Maybe that helps. Looks like the backside of the billboard has a different texture/size.
Good luck!

You were right. I had to apply image to both sides of billboard. Thank you so much.
