Forest Hut in Daz?

Every single promo pic was octane rendered. Not a single Daz render.
I'd really prefer to see at least one image rendered in the program Daz!
Octane is extremely expensive and many people like myself probably will never afford it. It just makes sense that if its made to use in Daz studio or poser it ought to have a promo rendered with their render engines, at least one of them!

Pretty please?

    I was just thinking the same thing.

    A Daz Studio render please.

    I agree with that, I tend to merely skim over the promo pictures made in render engines I don't use (which is most since I only have the Daz render at the moment)

    Downloading it now, if no one else does I'll post a simple render in a bit.

    thanks Richard, I've no doubt its gorgeous, and i have several sets by the same person...but without being able to see how it looks in DS and how the DS mats are..... well its detrimental. Appreciate it Richard! Would be helpful perhaps if Andrey would add a DS render or two to the store promo, it would be beneficial to sales, I would think!

    I'm rendering it plain, so no trees as in the promos (which show it in the forest set, by the stream). It's taking a while (using UE2 with the third quality setting).

    Slight pause - the camera had DoF on and I thought off would be more useful.

    One note, the DS files are saved as scenes rather than scene subsets so you will need to right-click on them and select Merge from the menu to add them to an existing scene.

    Distant light and UE2 with the KGPArk preset - I'd turned the light to DSM instead of RayTraced shadows because of the time it was taking, and didn't switch back after turning DoF off on the camera. It took ten minutes to render.

    Thanks Richard, now I know it can go down the cart (was a little cautious when it as many has said here only was Octane renders.

    Glad to help - I've been enjoying the Forest sets.

    speaking of the forest sets, what would anyone recommend as a light set for them? something that doesn't take infinitesimally long to render?

    Richard, can you shell out .DUF scene with light settings, that you render before?

    If you need to get a quick render, then try turning off the grass.

    I'm not sure how much traffic Google Drive will take, but for what it's worth here's the scene I used and a screenshot of the render settings (which are the defaults aside from Shading rate .5 and turning Gamma Correction on).
