Reality 1.0 for DAZ Studio

Your key to hyper-realism within Studio is here. Reality connects Studio to the amazing?LuxRender, giving you access to physically-based materials like volumetric glass, water, metal, fog and much more.

Reality is a plug-in that converts your DAZ Studio scene to LuxRender, the physically-based, un-biased renderer for Mac OS and Windows. With a click of the mouse you can render your scene with Lux, use advanced features like stop and resume, and network rendering. Plus Reality allows you to fine-tune and save your realistic materials, all inside the Reality User Interface.

‘It’s super impressive to see such a smooth and easy connection from D|S to a high end render engine.’?Stonemason
