  There was an update to:
  https://www.daz3d.com/balloons-and-neons
  so I decided to test the set in the render.

  

  I also have this product. Can you tell me if you have issues with the 'i' in balloon format?

  It just doesn't work here.

  Yes, it looks like they missed fixing I balloon during the last update.

  Thanks, @barbult
  I'm glad I bought both packages
  https://www.daz3d.com/balloons-and-neons
  and
  https://www.daz3d.com/foil-balloons-props
  so all the letters will look good with the balloons.
  I checked the neon lights and they all display correctly.

  Simple rendering test of some 3D Universe items in Daz Studio 4.24 iray.
  Some of the items were scaled up.
  Rendering Time: 1 minute 8 seconds

  When you say "toon view" is this some new render option in DS6? (I haven't tried DS6 yet so dont know if this is a thing), but it looks like iray to me.

  Filament view is in DS4. This image is IRAY, like you said.

  yeah I know its not filament the reflections are not possible like that in filament, i use it all the time, but it also might not be iray which is why i asked. It looks slightly different to me and the fact it was stated as "experiment with the toon view" and the next image clearly labeled as "daz studio 4.24 iray", made me think it is a diffferent render option.

  But there's nothing new in terms of rendering.

  There are some viewport changes that have value but overall the viewport is slower.

  There's Depth View. Not sure why one would use that.

  There's Universal View, which allows you to have some assets in texture shade  and some in wire texture shade and others in filament, etc in the viewport at the same time. I'm sure changing a forest to bounding box view would save processing the viewport.

  As for Artini's "toon view"? It's not a Daz technical term. Most likely it's just Artini's name for something else.
• Artini Posts: 10,993

  Yes, sorry for the confusion. I have just used toon looking items, as I adore 3D Universe items and discovered how well they are optimized.

  I use Daz Studio 4.24.03, because it works the best on my laptop and I use Daz to Unity bridge all the time.

  Sadly DS6 does not include working bridge for Unity, so I need to stay with this older version of Daz Studio for now.

  I hadn't noticed the 'W'! Ah... I had sent a ticket only for the 'i'. Well...at the end of the story I can rotate the M.

  Thanks for sending the ticket to Daz, @Navigator_ITA

  Rotating M could work as a replacement for W.
