    My guess would be that the Legacy one is for 4.8 as there were changes to the way Iray computes materials in 4.9

    A couple of settings changes brought on by the correction for a problem on Nvidia's end.  Use whichever one you think looks best...

    The Legacy version is for DS4.8, the Iray Base Mat is for DS4.9.  There was a bug in Iray which NVIDIA fixed that was incorporated in DS4.9, so the Legacy mat was added so that those who were using DS4.8 (with the bug) would still see the figure the way it used to look.

    Oh wonderful, it always puzzled me as to which one to use. I use DS 4.9 so I shall use the Iray Base Mats.
