Is your polygon set to "unseen by camera"? Can you post the scene?

Please post full scene. Unseen by camera affects only object visibilty, the object will still cast shadows and be seen in reflections and refractions.

It's full scene, it's just an instance test.

I'm sorry Alek but I cannot reproduce your problem with what you posted. You will need to use "pack scene" and sen me all the files (except textures). I'm really not sure what you are doing with all those nulls in the scene.

Ok, like i suspected you have an object there set to "unseen by camera". So your render looks correct with your settings. As I said previously "unseen by camera" will only make object unseen by camera, but it will still cast shadows and be seen in reflections/refractions.

Alsowhy are you using nulls to place your instances? This is just slow to work with. Please check how this scene hereis setup. You should use points and Kray instances plugin fro your instancing.

here is Your grass. Follow this idea, please. That`s the most easiest way for create grass in Kray until when we will receive working instance from LW11.
