Can someone help me with this, yep I've been gone for a while, but if someone can provide me with a link of information surrounding this new renderer I would be so grateful.

I keep seeing signs of it on various advertisements and posts and I'm scratching my head and going WHAT?

    ...Introduced in the 4.8 beta. I usually don't bother with beta releases, however, this is a major change. Been playing a lot with it since the introduction in March. There are several threads on the forums here:

    The general Sticky thread:

    ...and one about rendering: with more examples:

    As well as a couple more technical threads dealing with more specific topics like Hair and Skin in Iray.

    For more information on Iray itself http://www.nvidia.com/object/nvidia-iray.html and http://www.nvidia-arc.com/iray.html are good places to start.

    http://www.nvidia.com/object/material-definition-language.html for information on shading language used by Iray 2015, and soon to be others.

    For information on Physically Based Rendering (PBR) https://www.allegorithmic.com/pbr-guide

    Good to see you around again! Yes Daz has made quite the quantum leap with the Nvidia intergration. And for someone like me who's long been a proponent of photorealism & physically based workflow it's ideal. One more great tool to add to the PBR toolbox alongside Lux/Reality & Octane.

    Check out what Mec4D & I have been up to in our respective galleries, especially Cath...and make sure you're sitting down LOL.

    You said it sweet. I've gone through a rough two years and I'm finally starting to climb my way back to the world that brought me peace and supported my needed illustrations for the writing that I do. My goal is to take the 3D world and make it as realistic as it is possible for ME to do, and this new UP they've climbed - has once more glued me to them!

    This is the world I use it for...
