I still don't know what is being sold. There's nothing to tell me what's happening. I have 4 perpetual from the early days. I'm only a casual user. So 1 GPU for free sounds great to me. I usually never leave Daz Studio, and I use the other GPU for rendering, and the primary for display.

I WANT TO ...

I still can't tell what is being sold by OTOY. I just can't. I see rental.. purchase for an arm and a leg... and annual versions containing something that I don't know what.

What is going on!?! If I pay more money what on earth will I get? I simply have no idea.

Is there a product description any ...

I just upgraded to version 4... and everything seems happy.

I want to say that I find this upgrade and licensing very confusing.

I'm currently getting an error with Octane plugin 3.8.5.39. I have 2 GTX 980s (I dedicate the secondary for rendering, and the Primary is normal PC operation). I have nVidia driver rev 436.30, and my PC is Windows 7 64 bit. Daz is 4.11.0.383 Pro 64 bit.

Is there something I'm missing with my set up ...

Paul, the dForce Starter Essentials comes with Daz... and it includes 2 sample hair files to mess with. Nothing works in Octane.

I have no idea what happened and I can can't even figure out what to do to cause Octane to function.

I got the Daz plug in years ago, and that came with Octane. Now its doesn't work? What has changed? I never subscribed to anything. What is this thing called subscription? How do I know if My ...

I can't understand this licensing or what it wants me to do, or even what the ramifications are for upgrading from 3 to 4 and whether that affects my old licenses.

If I upgrade can I even use my old product without paying an annual fee? There is zero information.

I don't do that. Octane understands iRay well enough it seems. I just start working on Octane Materials right away.

I've seen a few daz products with shaders that aren't actually using the L.I.E. to merge textures into a final texture. They are doing it on the fly in iRay.

Makeup for Lori isn't visible in the daz view, but its visible in an iRay render;

Somehow ...

My 2 cents here... but iRay is just the render flavor of the day.

When I started in Daz studio, nothing was compatible with Daz. Everything was poser, and I have a lot of poser content. (I still buy and use a fair bit of it). So, for me I started having to edit everything to make it work. It wasn't ...
