Very nice.. I thought it might be something like the setup you described, which shows how nice a render can be coaxed out of base DS environment with a good understanding (still working on that part myself.) wink

Just because I may have a strong opinion doesn’t make it any more (or less) correct than any other, just that I feel passionately a particular way at that moment.

If DS4 is anything like DS2 & 3 then the “dials” you see for SubD are the on/off switch (Base & High res) and the viewport level, the actual render level that 3Delight uses was locked to 1, in DS2 & 3 I had the render level setting unlocked so I could adjust it myself, 0 = no SubD, 1 = default, 2 = cranked up the render times, and 3 = almost always crashed DS.

I haven’t looked at the inner workings of 4 yet, if I can find the inspiration and the time I’ll have a look and see what I can find.

Yep I concur and it is still the same in 4.5
