http://www.pasteall.org/blend/29948 here the file ,its not the alphas its the feather mesh
not showing in the render but does in the 3d window render

can no one help , i need this prob solved so i can render the finished model and the animation
please help

Sorry, but the file you linked to does not contain any “feather” meshes or something of that sort. It’s the very same file you linked to earlier - so, how are we supposed to help?

The feathers are in the layer panel addon ,make them visible then render

in that file they have no textures ,just the mesh

This is what I get when I render your file. Your problem is what again?


OK here you can see my prob in the preveiw render all is ok when i render it from the render tab full
render i get this , none of the feather meshes show in the proper render

Your feathers are in layers that are disabled in your scene’s render layers!
