I've read a few posts regarding Grainy Iray Renders and how to fix this problem, and that the result is a much longer render for darker scenes. So far my render has taken 24 hours, 39 minutes and 47 seconds and it's only at 60% complete (it's been at 60% for 10 or so hours). lol - Is this the norm for a darker render? I remember Carrara would take some time to render, but DAZ Studio 4.9 is now the winner! 😁

You could try making it brighter, then adjusting the Tone Mapping settings to darken it - a cheat, but it's what they do in Hollywood.

Not a bad idea... Not a bad idea at all...

Over 30 hours now. lol

I hate to stop it at this point, but I'll try a little post production on the next run for sure ;)
