Vray Fur renders black strands

anamichelena

Hello everyone,

I have a strange thing going on while rendering grass using the Fur tool: the strands always rendering black, and I don't know how to solve this! I took some screenshots when the problem occured:

In the beginning of the rendering process, the grass looks fine (image 'fur 1')
Once it gets into the progressive sampling, the grass turns black (image 'fur 2')
It stays like this when the render is finished... (image 'fur 3').

I tried changing the material (Vray material, Sketchup material, just a plain color, ...). Only when it has no material whatsoever, it renders white (image 'fur 4'), in all other cases: black.

I noticed when I create a fur object in a different file and paste it into my project, this object renders fine, but not always (or only for a while).
I have had this problem several times over the past weeks with various projects, so it is not linked to this specific Sketchup file.

Anyone has an idea how to solve this??

greetings,
Ana
