He used blender particle hair, that was the problem as it cannot be supported like that in real-time, it need to be textured plane.

Are you using the particle hair in blender, or textured planes?

Hi,

if you want you can send me your mesh file and the texture by email,
or at least the hair if you don't want to send the full object
(if you can also send the blend file it's good).

Hi,

there is probably a problem in your material (Maratis doesn't use exactly the same material properties as Blender)
be sure to check this tutorial : http://www.maratis3d.org/?p=277

But basically for hair strands, Maratis will use the alpha channel of the diffuse texture (use a png or tga with alpha channel),
be sure that the "alpha" value in the material is 1 and not 0.

For hair I suggest to use black and white alpha (no grey values) and no blending,
otherwise, if you really wants grey-value alpha, be sure to select the "alpha" blendMode,
but in this case the z-test will be disabled.
