It's possible that Daz made a mistake hitching their wagon so tightly to IRAY and NVidia. It does seem to be an increasing problem. Nevertheless, Daz has gone out of its way to make assets exportable to other programs. That may be the key to using Daz assets going forward. It's more work, more bother; but it may extend the life of Daz assets. I don't like it, but it may be the way of things.

For now, I've downloaded 4.23 builds and have not installed them because of the Premiere exclusive nonsense. It's a causal relationship. I run a 4.22 build. Also, Richard has made very clear that the 50xx series will not run on any DS4 build - We're waiting for DS5. But there is no timeline for DS5. It could appear tomorrow, or it could appear in 2030. No one knows! And no one knows how DS5 will behave when it arrives - It could be an additional year or more until the problems are resolved. If DS5 takes long enough to drop, we could be talking about 60xx cards. So, yeah... I think there is a bit of a problem in DazLand.
