yeah that one Smile
but i never use tyflow to directly render (since i m using render farm) i use export node to create tycache files..
choosing tycache and unselecting visible to camera works all time ..
if u gonna use matte material be careful in the shape node there is an option called get instanced material from source or something like that...
