    try changing your Studio interface theme or layout, if Reality shows up try switching it back.

    I'd love to tell you I'm that damn good but I've had it happen personally and asked over at the Reality forums, it seems like something was implemented in the DS 4.6 interface where Reality is still active (you can ctrl+shift+L to bring it up) but the Daz Studio interface gets corrupt and wont show the custom icon.

    awesome! Well not lets try this error, I started trying to render through reality and checked "collect textures" like i did in the passed and now I get
    "[LuxRays::SDL] Reading texture map:
    [SLG] RUNTIME ERROR: Unknown image file format:"

    EDIT: happens even without the checking of "collect textures"

    Tried to duplicate this and couldn't. Ask at the Reality forums on Runtimedna.com and I bet someone can figure it out.
    Collect textures is used when you want to "collect textures" so you can easily move the file to another computer to store the entire scene but it's not really needed for rendering.

    Hi.

    This error is caused by a bug in SLG.

    Please see this article in the Reality FAQ:

    Thank you.

    There is a bug in Studio that causes the UI to not refresh even though a plugin added an action to the menu. Once you force the refresh all the options show.
