In my opinion none of the effects "look" over cranked as in 'bad.' It is just that the time was high for no reason because I unnecessarily had them set hight with no appreciable improvement. However, aside for render time mike if you or anyone also feel something also looks wrong please specifically comment, would be appreciated.

I am working with clothing and hair now, will post results tomorrow. First reaction is that hair sim vastly improved.
