Nvidia IRay Shader Presets

I recently upgraded my Daz 4.7 64 bit to Daz 4.8 64 bit on the same Windows 7 64 bit operating system. The transition was smooth and seamless and I could locate everything in the Content Tab as though I never left the old version. Soon after, I thought I would try out the Iray renderer on one of my old scenes. It worked without any problems, but I thought there was some room for improvement.

Checking out some videos on the web, I found out that this renderer works best with a set of shaders designed for it. There were clear instructions as to how to locate this group of shaders in the Daz Content menu. When I go to the Shader Presets in my Daz Library, I cannot locate the Iray set of Uber shaders that are to be used. Only other unrelated shader types appear here. My question is this: Am I missing something or do these shaders have to be added separately?

Thanks for any help.

    You need to download the Default Lights and Shaders for 4.8. They are in your Product Library.

    Thanks, Wilmap.

    I looked at my Products icon in the Contents window and no Iray or Uber shaders were listed. You said to download this package. Could you provide a download site if possible. Also one other thing. I looked at the folder where DAZ 4.8 is housed. Inside the shaders folder are DAZ\Uber, iray\daz_3d, NVidia, and resources. These might be what I'm looking for, but I can't seem to point the Content window towards them.

    Thanks again

    Late Note: Please Cancel my plea for a download site. I found everything in a very hidden and obscure spot. It was listed directly below where I downloaded Daz 4.8 on myaccount download page.
