    I don't do betas any more, but this and some of the other features are making me really look forward to the final release.

    Agreed -- same for me.

    Until it's available, however, has anyone had any issues using the updated Genesis and G2F/G2M starter bundles with version 4.6.3.52?

    You shouldn't have any problem, they've added new content but none of the existing content has changed.

    Cool, thanks.

    So decided to re rig something in the new version to give it a try and though the grouping rigging weight mapping all went well..the view for some reason is darker?
    both version side by side with everything the same..though everything i load in 4.7 is dark?

    Is Gamma Correction on in Render Settings in one but not the other? Do the options in Edit>Preferences>Interface match?

    Short answer, yes.
    Long answer:
    Beta builds are marked as Beta and have a different sku number. They are also tagged so you can filter them out them from your list of Install manager Downloads. (Default for Public Beta is off.) Until it changes (Probably DS 5) the Sku number for the public, stable, release is 13176, we don't release beta's with that sku number. We don't release Betas without the Beta tag. :)

    So for future reference when that sku number has an update it is a new stable release. :)

    ...cool, thanks. Didn't want to install before I was sure.

    Guess I have the "Beta Off" filter active or I never saw a beta version in the DIM Product Updates pane.

    Another silly question, do we still have to reactivate our plugins as had to be done for the Beta?

    I am not sure what you are referring to. The only thing that I am aware of with plug-ins is that if you want them to be installed to the Beta, you have to use the Beta version of the DAZ3D plug-ins. For third party plug-ins you have to, sometimes, uninstall and reinstall plug-ins so they go into both the Beta and the release version, others there is no easy way to get them to work with the Beta.

    But I don't know any plug-in that requires a reactivation without a change to the SDK. (Like what happened between 3.0 and 4.0 and between 4.0 and 4.5.) There is no change to the SDK between 4.5 and this release.

    ..apologies, I meant install.


    ETA.

    Installed, checked my plugins status and all are "green" so don't need to do anything else.

    Question:

    Can the Aux Viewport have a different aspect ratio to the main viewport? I mean apart from changing the view to Perspective or Left, etc?

    I have put the Aux View in a tab in my Right Hand Panel which is tall and narrow whereas my main viewport is wide aspect. I'd like the aux view to be filled (fit to window).

    Make a new camera and in the Camera Dimensions settings in the Parameter Pane change the size to Active Viewport and choose that camera in the Aux Viewport and then remove the Aspect Frame for that camera

    Are there a way to achieve a big size rendering for IPR?
    I obtain significative difference between IPR and final rendering. Because I'm searching simplification, I want the simplified IPR output, but I need big size for better results, I think about 3000x3000 pixel size in IPR. Because I work with a very simple shader, possible time rendering is not a problem.

    I use an ASUS PB287Q.

    It is very good. Sharp and powerfull colors.
    In Windows System I set the size of text of 120%.

    Dr. Pingy,

    I just got the ASUS PB287Q myself. I'm also feeling your pain of using a 4K monitor with fixed pixel size fonts. DAZ would be nice if they used interface fonts in point sizing, and let the end user define the DPI for their monitor setup to correct for this interface scaling issue. I'm noticing that Adobe is suffering similar interface 4K scaling issues, but at least allows scaleable fonts to alleviate the unreadable microprint issue.

    How do I change the background colour in this version please

    scorpio

    Window > Panes > Environment Pane everything beyond that should be self explanatory. If it is just the viewport Background colour then that is done through Window > Style > Customise Colors

    Thank you it was the viewport background, it got changed when I loaded something in and I couldn't find a way to get it back, then I messed up my whole layout, and have just spent the last 20minutes getting that back how I like it.

Also in Edit > Preferences > Scene you have the options pertaining to Background colour when saving or opening new scenes.

    I'm very curious about this IPR thing. Does it mean I could have near-real-time shadow or at least ambient occlusion? For animation too? That would super super awesome!!!

    I have so many questions. Trying hard to not run to the store and buy up all the animation packs...

    I would really appreciate it gilikshe if you would show me some pics of IPR? Or is it allowed since this is a beta...?
