Aaaanyways,
I think, it's something engine related. No alpha- no flickering with water/windows/trees. I saw someone made hair with alpha already, means it's possible. But the hair flickers with itself. Is it something layers related? Or just shaders?
Would be really nice to get some help from Gurus
Hair flickering with itself is a mesh related issue, not really from the shaders themselves. The Sims 4 Base game hairs lack the proper mesh to support alpha editability and would need to be fixed before they are able to be alpha'd.
Shader wise, it's possible to happen but as said before I myself haven't found any working shader that doesn't crash the game.
The closest shader that supported Alphas was the SimGlass shader, but the problem with it is that it turns the item transparent, as if it's glasses and it collides with sunglasses.

I posted here asking about it because I was curious on a possibility of either getting help on making a shader that supports alpha for both clothing and hairs (Because alpha clothing would be cool to have too) or the possibility of there being an existing shader in the game files (which is why I'm asking for a list if anything) that can be used so that at most users won't have to install a ton of extra items just to have working hairs in their games (Thus preventing the problem of the users who don't want to read and then break their game and whine about it)
