Description
This product was approved for testing today! There's one for G2F, one for G2M, and the bundle (and yes, we do plan a G3F version).

This is a set of shaders and presets by fuseling and me. It lets you update your skins to Iray and have them look great with minimal clicks. I'll be doing a video tutorial on how to use it with your lighting to get the best results.

You can't imagine how pleased and relieved I am. DAZ turned this down in its first version, but that experience forced us to learn a lot very quickly about lighting skins in Iray and setting up shaders, and our product is much stronger as a result.

About the render:

This was rendered in DAZ Studio 4.8's Iray engine. There is no postwork.

The lights are three mesh light spheres (white, blue, and orange) plus two eye highlighting spotlights. The default HDR is used and is left set to 1.0.

The tone mapping is an exposure of 16.64, shutter speed 1/200, F/Stop 16 and film ISO 200 (following the Sunny 16 rule I talked about in a tutorial video on my YouTube account).

The bloom filter is turned on at threshold 20,000 and radius 0.01 (no other filter settings changed).

The progressive rendering settings were left at default except for raising the convergence to 100%.

The render took 56 minutes 18.29 seconds to complete 5000 iterations on a machine with two GTX 980's and two GTX 740's plus the CPU checked and OptiX render acceleration in use at a size of 2000x2600 pixels. (You can find this result on your own machine after a render finishes by going to Help--Troubleshooting--Log File and scrolling down the text document to the bottom to see the results.)

Originally it was only 1000x1300, but DAZ made me redo it with the navel morphs on. I can't be relied upon to remember to turn on the navel when I do promo renders, so they have to do this a lot. That being the case, I went ahead and redid it larger for dA. I'm not the only one with this navel-blindness problem, either. This is probably why your G3F comes with the navel dialed in by default. As Ivy Baker Priest once said, I'm often wrong, but never in doubt!
