I have placed my character in teh shower and teh first thing i noticed was that her hair wasnt visible anymore.
When i render the scene this is what happened. (see screenshot).
The doors of the shower should be glass but they go dark...
I did notice that when i get behind the first window it looks ok. Its like the 2 windows cancel each other out.
EDIT even inside the room the shower windows are black.

3Delight? Probably too many refractive surfaces for the current maximum bounce number in Render Settings.
Yes sorry 3Delight. So i should increase the bounce number?
Yes, each surface with refraction will use one bounce so a lot of glass can quickly exhaust the default (at which point the render takes the colour of the current surface without proceeding further).
Where is that setting as i looked but did not see it under that name. I am now making a render using iray but i rather do it in 3delight in order to make everything look the same.
It´s the raytrace depht in the render settings tab. Set it to 2 or 3 and it should work!
I played with the settings and this is as best as i gotten it.
I tried to do it again but i moved the camera slightly now i cant get the same result anymore. However i only needed 1 image so for now this one will do.
I did try it in iray and it looked realy great but the differnece with 3delight is to big so i will have to remain on 3delight. Renders on iray take far to long since i have an AMD card and not a NVidia.
