Reality celebration!! 60% off on Reality and all presets for two days only. Tell your friends. preta3d.com/reality-products/
On August 29th Reality 1.0 went on sale at the DAZ store and rendering for Studio and Poser changed forever.
Physics-Based Rendering–PBR for short–was a new technique for the 3D world in general and it was unheard of in the Poser/DAZ Studio universe. Reality introduced the concept and dominated the market for the years to come. 3D artists around the world became able to use lighting and materials as they were supposed to be: by absolutely accurate emulation of physical properties, instead of gross approximation as it was done before with renderers like 3Delight and Firefly. It changed the Poser/DAZ Studio market almost overnight.
For the past six years I had the privilege of serving this community of enthusiastic artists and making a living while doing so. You have welcomed Reality with open arms and produced an amazing body of work. I made new friends and discovered a world of possibilities that I could only imagine before. You provided great feedback and helped making Reality better.
Thank you very much for your continued support and friendship. To celebrate this milestone Reality and all presets will be on sale at 60% off for just two days.
Keep on rendering!

Reality and IES written by sigstan
An IES file is the measurement of the distribution of light (intensity) stored in ASCII format. IES profiles are useful for creating life-like lighting, as they can represent the physical distribution of light from any light source.
Here is an example of lights with different IES profiles (From Maya Zest free IES files):
Any of these profiles can be attached to a mesh light in Reality, and this will make the light behave according to the IES profile. Yes, that means you can turn a little mesh light plane into a round spot light with a well-defined light cone!
IES profiles make this possible to control th

Freebies and tutorials for Reality artists
Reality artist extraordinaire Marcel2586 has generously given us a series of props to be used with Reality. Not satisfied with doing just that, Marcel also provided exhaustive tutorials and demos on how to employ the textures and props. All this happened in the Reality Forums, and if you are not a member you are missing out. The forums are free and they are the best place where to find great Reality information, support, and tutorials.
Click here to see examples and to download props and textures.

Moving to a new server
Hello,
We will be moving to a new server tonight, June 15th. There are no changes scheduled to the website. We just need a new server, and we need to upgrade the OS, which has been unchanged for about five years. I have been planning this move for a while, and I hope that there will be no interruptions besides the few minutes needed to do the switch.
But, if any unplanned event throws a wrench in the works, please bear with us. The switch will happen at around 8:00pm EST today.
Thank you for your patience.

A game changer for sure. I've used it since release day and today I can barely imagine using anything else. I still remember that first cryptic message on a DAZ forum thread about rendering water and then a few days later that jaw dropping image. My gf thought you were simply someone trying to be funny. "Are you sure that isn't simply a photo?", she said.
Good show, sir.
