Iray 'Legacy' Materials?

I've noticed that when I open a character in Daz Studio, in the Smart Content folder, that if I select the 'Iray' category for materials, there's often one which is named 'all maps' (presumably, this is the generalised skin for the figure) and then another which is labelled 'Iray Legacy'.

Does anyone know what the difference is meant to typically be? Should one be selected for certain types of Iray renders and the other be used for a different type?

    There was an issue with translucency that was corrected in Daz Studio 4.9 and required updates to the skin textures. Legacy is for use in 4.8 and the other is for 4.9 and onward.

    Ahhh! Now, this makes sense... I remember there being an Iray issue with the 'Vampire' spaceship and am guessing this is something similar.

    Thanks a lot! I'll ignore the 'Legacy' settings from now on, with this in mind. Nice to know what they are for, though!
