Hi All,
I am having a bit of a problem installing Reality 2.5 in DAZ 4.7.
I will apologize in advance if this has been asked before.
The problem is it is not showing in either in my laptop or my desktop. The software seemed to have installed correctly. When I started DAZ I was asked to register. And that went smoothly. But when I go to Shaping/Rendering > Render Setting > Editor, I only see Basic Open GL, Intermediate OpenGL, 3Delight, Scripted 3Delight, and LuxRender via Luxus...but no Reality.
I am presently stuck at page 12, any ideas on what I may have done or not done.

Many Thanks in Advance!!!

    ...click the "Render" on the upper menu bar. It should show in the drop down menu.

    You can also check to see that it is active by clicking "Help > About Installed Plugins" (also on the menu bar). If there is a green "plug" icon next it it then it installed and activated correctly.

    I thank you very much!! :-) Had I really looked at the picture on page 12 I would have realized I was looking in the wrong place. Actually I was expecting to see it with the other renderer's (sigh) :roll:

    ...glad to be of help.

    Only render options that are integrated into DazStudio will show in the Render Settings tab. Reality is basically a "bridge" to LuxRender which is an external render engine.
