	When '''Raytrace''' is ''Off'', the surface will not be seen by diffuse or specular rays. For example, this can useful if you do not want your hair to be seen by [[UberEnvironment]] to speed up your renders.

	=== Translucence ===		==== Translucence ====

	Translucency is a cheap simulation of backscattering and is most effectively used for thin surfaces like paper, leaves, etc. For materials with more volume to them (like skin), it is recommended that you use the more render-intensive Subsurface Scattering, possibly with the addition of Backscatter Boost.
