K so I purchased this character earlier: https://www.daz3d.com/biyu-for-genesis-81-female but in the picture below (nudity is edited out) is what she looks like and when I render in Iray its still strange. I understand its not a fault with the character product but rather my 8.1 seemingly not loading as it should as I've had this before to much confusion. Anyone know if I'm missing something here for G8F8.1 to work properly? thx.

My guess is you have some unwanted morphs kicking in.
If you in parameters enables 'shpw hidden' and then click currently used, with the character selected in the scene tab, you can see all the morphs on the character. You can go through these and find out if there is any unexpected.
"Currently used" does not show badly behaving morphs that have a non-zero default value
Image removed - see Acceptable Ways of Handling Nudity
To fix any ill-behaving (non-zero default value) morphs, do as follows;
1. Open DS and load "Genesis 8.1 Basic Female" (to an empty scene)
2. Right Click at Parameters Tab->Preferences->Choose "Show Hidden Properties" (part 3 zeroes only 'visible' dials)
3. Right Click at Parameters Tab->Zero->Zero Figure (Zeroes the value of all the 'visible' dials)
4. Right Click at Parameters Tab->Memorize->Memorize Figure (Sets the current value of all the dials as their default value)
5. Edit->Save As->Support Asset->Save Modified Assets (Writes the changed default value to the morph files that were changed)
When saving "Modified Assets" DS shows a dialog and asks for confirmation;
"The following file(s) will be permanently modified:" - "Accept/Cancel" - Choose "Accept"
