cut off problem.png
I have a scull model which is made of parts which have the composite material with mask using vertex map which is driven by fields... All works fine but when is some object "Masked" by mask parameter inside of Composite shader it is transparent in scene but also it cuts off the part of other objects it intersecting with... it is a problem, but how to overcome it?

I have already tried the Mix Material but also this does the same cut off problem while it is fully transparent.

Hi,
try to add a zero to Ray Epsilon value in kernel panel to reduce it and increase the precision of the rays:

Hello and thank you for your tip how to solve this issue... I figgured out this by scaling the scene up a bit, as 10 times and it also fixed the problem.
