Bad Time Rendering Since Update

Everything was running just fine before the last DAZ3D update (4.8.0.59, 64-bit). Now whenever I try to render it all but freezes my entire PC. If it works, it takes almost an hour for basic models, if it doesn't work DAZ3D crashes. 

I'm trying to isolate the problem, but doing test renders takes a very long time, so if anyone has an idea of what changed that could be causing it I'd really appreciate being pointed in a direction.

Also, I am NOT well versed in DAZ3D and it's the only 3D program I use.

    Were you previously using a version before 4.8?  The defaut render engine is now Iray -- you can switch back to 3delight in the Render Settings pane.

  • Oh thank god, and you too dude. That fixed it just fine. Apparently my poor old beast can't handle Iray. I like the settings it has, but that'll have to wait until I have a PC that isn't seven years old!

    Switched back to 3delight and it rendered almost instantly.
