Any improvement for the animation tools? Or it still got the "double click scrub" timeline?
Anybody else having major lagging and framerate issues in Iray Draw Mode now?
For anyone asking: Nvidia 4080, Studio Driver 610.47
Anyone else got this bug when pressing the "Restore Figure Pose" it causes the right click button to bug out... aka NOT working at all... quite annoying! it works if restarted but doing the "Restore" does the same thing...
I am interested what are the implications for privacy with the AI chatbot integration. Does it spy on what I do with the software, learn from me, whatever? Is my art spied on, copied, used for AI training etc?
The AI Chatbot is only there to answer your questions, it doesn't spy or learn from you. Any training is done elsewhere.
That is reassuring, thanks. I wish it was clearly stated on the product page instead of scaring people off from the start
How do I get the files onto a machine so I can transfer them to an offline machine when there is no page for DS6 like the DS4 download page below?
My only machine I can download any files on to is an Android tablet, and DIM does not work on Android. I have no PC connected to the internet at home, and I have never had a Mac.

It's fantasic to see this has been released, clearly a massive step. I installed it, and it basically works, but in iRay, the viewport is so laggy I couldn't consider using it. I couldn't imagine setting up lighting or adjusting shaders, or anything that requires iRay. Machine is a mobile 5090 / i9 / 64Gb RAM, so not what you'd call slow.
You make a change with just a G9 loaded, then 5 seconds later, something happens. It wasn't like the 3090 desktop in 4.24; everything was smooth. I'm getting the impression that this is not an uncommon experience, so now we've got a release, I expect to get something usable soon. I'll try the patch on the 9th, and check my nVidia driver.
Not asking for help, just stating this as feedback, since I feel that it's really not quite there yet. I've done without Daz for six months since I upgraded and discovered that there wasn't a stable release for the card. I can wait a bit longer, so I'll just say great job guys :)
I don't really understand.
Do you want DS 4.24 offline on your PC or DS 6.25?
The screenshot shows 4.24
You download the files on a internet connected PC, copy them to a mobile hard drive, connect that hard drive to your offline computer and run the install exe.
I see, Android tablet.
Should still work to download them either to your tablet and copy those files to a mobile harddrive or download those files directly to your hard drive.
Maybe I am being thickheaded, but I do not see my usual Scene/Environment pane, and selecting this from the Windows->Panes menu seems to have no effect?
How does one remove the Beta build version?
While I appreciate your reply it doesn't help much. I use 4.24 now so I must have the basic things you need to use it. I've also been using all the alpha and beta releases on the same PC because it has a 5090. If I install this file will DIM install it on Daz 4.24, Daz 6, or both? I will not install the released version of Daz 6 until I understand what will happen to 4.24. I understand expert users may appreciate the new features in Daz 6 but I'm not an expert and the two main things that matter to me are both bad. First most of my script based products and all of my plug-in products don't work in Daz 6 and I suspect some of them never will. Second, I spend almost all of my time in Daz using the main viewport and the performance of the main viewport in 4.24 is much, much better than it is in 6. Until both of these issues are addressed in Daz 6 I will continue using it only for rendering with my 5090. If necessary I will simply continue using the last beta and ignore the released version.
They want DS6. But unlike DS4 which does have a download section (as shown on the screenshot), there is currently none on the product library page for DS6, you can only get the files through DIM.
Iray preview works fine. Iray render dumps to a black screen. I am disgruntled.
Nothing will happen to DS4.24 if you install DS6, they're separate installs and can be both installed on the same computer. You can then point DS6 to the same content directories as DS4 if you want.
The default resources files are content, not a part of the program. You install them into a DS content directory. If your DS6 uses the same content directories as DS4 then it should already have these files.
You should be able to uninstall it with DIM.
This man speaks the truth, the viewport is abysmal compared to 4.24 the lag and stutter is much worse (with the same scenes) on Daz 6, and since we have a 50xx card we are forced to work with a much more inferior program (Daz 6)
Actually, can I just check, as it seems people are using this seriously now? Is the expectation that this is usable on a 5090 with the viewport set to iRay? I mean that when you move things likke lights in the viewport, or move a figure to see how it affects shadows, you don't have to wait a few seconds. Victoria is telling me it doesn't work and suggesting the sort of optimisations I used to make on my 1060. I don't believe AI as far as I can throw i usually, but who knows...?
So should I be getting a usable viewport? Somthing that I can see update quickly when I make changes? I just want to understand the expectation.
Thanks.
I agree, it shows DS4, that's because I can't get an equivalent for DS6. It's a bit difficult to show it when I can't get it. I also mentioned I don't have an internet connected PC. And because there is no manual download I can't get the files onto a tablet. If you can show the steps, please do so.

Thanks for the clarification. I have been sharing the content directory with both versions of Daz. If I understand correctly there is no need for me to install the 'Default Resources for Daz 4.23+' file since I already have this content from my installation of 4.24. Since this is the case I'll simply hide this file in DIM rather than installing it.
Different question. I see people asking about uninstalling the beta. I guess this means that the Daz 6 release version will not update the beta installation and after installation I will have 3 versions of Daz on my PC: 4.24, 6 (2026) beta, and 6. Is there any problem with leaving all 3 versions on the machine other than wasting disk space?
I have both Daz Studio 4.24 and 6 installed using the same NVIDIA 3090 GPU. The viewport in Daz Studio 6 looks broken in Texture Shaded mode which looks way better in 4.24. For example hair has no texture and skin appears very bright and over exposed.
I am missing hardware settings in the Interface tab of the preferences. By looking at the screenshot attached, version 6 is missing the following settings:
This has been the case with all the build of Daz Studio 6 I've tried over the last few months. I assumed this "official release" would fix this issue but seems like its still in BETA.
From my own personal experience: I do my setting up in Textured View and use Iray Viewport to do a quick check. The viewport is laggy when moving stuff around in Iray Viewport, but that has been the case in 4.x as well. There is a Windows update next week, it may improve things if some reports from DS 6 users are to go by.
No problem with all those installs.
Like for DS4, beta and general release of DS6 are separate installs. And no, there is no problem with leaving all 3 versions installed.
This lagging nonsense is unacceptable, there's even a tiny bit of it in Texture Shaded and the new Universal Draw Modes as well.
Same for me, same settings, only one G8F in the scene - 4.24 iray preview ist smooth , 6 stutters when changing the pov...
Rendering itself seems to be faster for me.
Everything appears to work fine for me, with the exception of UltraScenery 2. I've tried reinstalling the plugin through DIM and manually. US2 pane does not show up anywhere, and US2 itself does not show up in Help > about installed plugins. Yet scenes containing UltraScenery 2 environments load and render just fine.
(Just a note, US2 works as expected in Daz 4.24)
Plugins for DS4 do not work in DS6, you need a new version compiled with the DS6 SDK. Some scripts also require an update.
It hasn't been released for DS 6 yet. The existing plugin only works in DS 4.
