Iray lights dont change the render...

Hi. Whenever I am trying to load a light setting, for example fiery genesis, it does nothing to affect the render. I think I must have toggled something off somewhere. Any ideas?

    You didn't toggle of something, the early stuff wasn't put together for Iray use. Remove the "UberEnvironment2", it doesn't work in Iray. You can use the default HDRi with Dome and Scene "Environment Mode".

    On the other lights, turn "Photometric Mode" to ON, so Iray will get the idea they're actuallly lights. Set colors and intensities to their defaults, 255-255-255 and 100%, on a photometric, intensity is determined by "Luminous Flux", and a light's color by "Temperature". Be aware that the shaders on Genesis, her cloth and hair are optimized for 3Delight and most times, if not always, need a lot of overhaul to look at least acceptable in Iray.

    See "Fiddling with Iray skin settings..." thread for hints.

    Thanks! I had inadvertently messed up the dome settings...it's looking better now
