I don't know if I am tired or if this is truly wrong, please help!

RSL is for 3Delight and MDL is Iray right? Is anyone elses icons like this? How can I tell once the material is loaded if it is RSL or MDL if my icons says both!?!

    Check the top of the surfaces pane while the figure and surfaces are selected. It'll tell you the name of the shader being used. You need to be in the Editor sub-tab of surfaces to see it.

    That is so cool! Funny how that was there all this time and I never, ever noticed it before! Thanks Vaskania! I just need to ignore the little tag at the top of the icon.

    This is most likely a metadata error. It is metadata that causes that RSL or MDL to be added to the thumbnail. Please submit a help request describing the problem.

    looks like you have an update or still gotta install something judging by her face pic that little arrow in the circle/ I usually just click the iray tab just to show those

    Thanks 'barbult' and 'ANGELREAPER1972'. I have been playing around with Daz, Dim, Daz connect, and categorizing for the last couple of days so when 'barbult' mentioned metadata, I didnt know if I messed something up. My system has been running slow, so last night I decided to wipe my system and do a fresh install as I been meaning to do it for a while. When I get my content reinstalled, I will take a look and if the icons are the same, I will submit a help request.

    Thanks!

    They won't fix metadata errors for products before 30000 sku.

    Ok, I just finished with a complete wipe and new install of system. Man, its nice when you have a fresh system, so fast! Anyway, Icons are still the same, so I believe it to be as said above, a metadata error. Easy fix, I just went into the 'Content DB Editor', and into the asset folder and highlighted all the preset materials and changed from Preset>Materials>RSL to Preset>Materials>MDL  and vice-versa. Icons are now correct.
