I originally went for short loops purely for size issues, found it much easier to download since i live in the sticks and my internet is crap 90% of the time. I've got a few more longer, even darker and more atmosphere clips since that I'll play around with. Might even go for a different loop per scene instead of per update as I've been doing.

Sure, I'm using GeForce GTX 1060 3gb, Itnel i5-7400 cpu @ 3ghz, 8 gigs ramwell first, one would have to know the specs of your rendering machine.

hmmmmmm
few questions,
did you get the GPU to use with DAZ or did you already have it?
do your scenes fit in the GPU's ram or are the renders defaulting to the CPU?
roughly how long do your renders take?(do you let them "finish"?)

oh, and, the best way to improve your renders... hunt down and watch DAZ lighting tutorials. learning how to light things in DAZ is one of the most important things for better renders!

The GPU was a gift from my wife who knew how frustrated I was getting with my old pc. I believe they fit, how would I check this?
They take approx 3hrs each, 90% of them I let finish since I use batch render and let them finish while I'm at work.

I've watched so many videos, but I keep looking and keep watching, some go over my head some sink in but i do enjoy creating and improving what I do.

I just check the render pop up window and look for "texture memory"
example
and unless you dont mind 3 hour renders, that GPU is holding you back. fairly sure your renders are defaulting to the CPU....

A common mistake new users make is not letting the image render long enough. Go in to render setting then progressive rendering and turn the Max timer to 0. Turning the limiter off will also give you better render but will take much longer.
If you are using the new beta it has the new denoiser which helps get a much smoother render with less post work needed. You also get faster renders with more lighting in the scene. The darker/more blackness you have in a render the longer it will take to render.
If you would like some examples you can find my work (NSFW - Nudity/Porn)

.Yeah, they added more pictures. I was referring to one where she's baring her teeth.

Thanks for the tips, what would you reccommend for lighting for nightime scenes?

I don't mind 3 even 4 hr renders, and you're right, it is defaulting to the CPU, might have to look into a 1080 amybe?

Well, all depends on your budget. Basically just get as much vram as you can.
Hell, just mixing random assets one time I ended up with a scene that had around 25GB in textures! Lol
I feel like having a mini orgasm whenever I read such figures. Call me a simple man :FeelsGoodMan:
