IRAY WATCHDOG - RENDER ALERTS FOR DAZ STUDIO
Version 1.1.0
(c) 2026 Magtheridon3D

WHAT IT DOES
Iray Watchdog watches DAZ Studio while you render and sends an alert to your
phone (ntfy app or Telegram), to a Discord channel, or as a pop-up with a sound
on your PC: when a render or animation is done, when Iray runs out of video
memory or falls back to the CPU, when video memory is full and the render slows
down, when a render fails, and when DAZ Studio crashes.

REQUIREMENTS
- Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit.
- DAZ Studio 4.22, 4.24 or 6.
- For phone alerts: internet on the PC and the free ntfy app, Telegram or Discord.
