Thanks for all the help will be testing those later tonite it can get rather complicated but that seems simple enough.

Was reading up on Reality 2 but seems like the renders may take forever also one last thing using 3d delight whats the setting for anti alaising seems one render i did the object wasnt curved or you could detect polygon seams or the object wasnt smooth and countoured.

The additional distant lights seemed to add more realism in the skin textures as well

what would be some recommended settings for the lights and spotlights as well as for the most realistic lighting say for instance outdoor lighting or studio lighting thanks.

Realize theres lots of tweak settings to obtain the best result

Also the placement of the distant lights where would be the best area to place them?

Thanks!

Thanks for the information so best to do some tweaking on a much smaller render size great idea!

Been using a distant light and a spotlight that is raytraced tried another type lighting but  long render times. Guess a backdrop of some sort adds some depth to the realism?

Does Reality 2 plugin really help ? Or does it take even longer time to render ? Thanks for the info

Whats the best realistic lighting setup for Daz that would incorporate realism with render time thanks?
