I can't for the life of me get the lighting in the dome to work. I use the Midday setting and it's pitch black. I'm not adjusting any of the settings, using it out of the box. Anyone run into this?

Ocean Wide https://www.daz3d.com/ocean-wide is an older product, SKU under 20,000 or so, which means it pre-dates Iray and iss et up for 3Delight. In 3Delight objects can be set not to cast shadows, and that is probably what was done with the dome; in Iray Photoreal objects always cast shadows, so thedome model is blocking all lights that are outside (the environment map and any distant lights). What you could do is delete the doem and apply the enviroment map use in the Uber Environment node to the Iray Environment map in Render Settings (once you have used Iray to preview or render, or after using Create>Environment Settings node).
Ahhh! Thank you. That makes sense.
