I have only just started using DAZ3D, so I'm not yet experienced with using it. But I think there is a mode where you can turn off the ray-tracing to see what it will (roughly) look like. It might save you hours and hours of rendering only to find out that you have to throw it all away ... ? Hope this helps ...

Nice. At least it should help with hiccups, and objects jumping into the action. ;-)
I've just started using DAZ, stills only at the moment. I'm looking forward to doing animations.
Q: I know DAZ's *official* position is that it doesn't support 'sex'. To simulate this, do I need to purchase add-on(s) for anatomical correctness (M/F), or ... ?
Yeah. The two assets you want are Dicktator (G8M) and Golden Palace (G8F)
