Yeah, you mean "Face Direction" under Particle_Billboard? 

Doesn't remove the square!

Arvid, there's a switch somewhere that orient the particle to the incoming ray.
Look for incoming ray under the ptype.

After some more testing I found why I couldn't see any reflections of the particles in that particular scene, while it seemed to work in other scenes, it's something with the view angle. But I have no idea what the cause is, looks like a bug of some sort. I think I've nailed the problem as shown the screenshot below. I'll upload this scene if anyone's interested.

Here's the image:

Anyone else had a problem with this one?

...doesn't seem to work. The particles dissapear all together, however I'm able to turn off secondary, but that doesn't help me :-) I'm trying to make a reflection-only pass of my particles. Any ideas?
