Is it possible to remove HD from morphs?

Hi guys, I was wondering if it is possible to remove the HD shapes from morphs that don't have the option to turn it off? I assume not, but I figured I'd ask anyways. The reason why I want to turn it off is because of the drastic increase in rendering times.

    I think the simple answer is no, which is a shame. The solution is also simple - do not buy any HD characters that do not have the option to add/remove HD details. Maybe, sooner or later, vendors will get the message.

    It's not possible in 3delight, but in Iray you can control the amount of subD to use when rendering by surface, I believe.

    But if you are using Iray then you are not going to get a quick render. So, basically, do not buy HD characters (unless they have the option to add/remove HD details).

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I found rendering HD characters to be faster in Iray than 3Delight. This was a test I did on a smaller portrait. I guess I'll have to look for an off option. I own a couple HD figures that have the off option. I wish the vendor for Adaline would update the product and add an off option. I was just excited to get the character and didn't bothere even checking if there was an off option... my bad there. However, I guess I will be staying away from HD characters for now on unless they have the off option.

    I wish we could get a DAZ employee to confirm or deny that pretty much all of Genesis 3 Female's morphs are HD morphs.

    Check the file list - HD morphs are .dhdm

    Thanks, the file list seems to indicate that only the mouth and some expression morphs are HD. I'll have to remember to start a new thread to detail the weirdness I am experiencing that made me suspect that there are a lot of hidden HD morphs in G3F.
