I'm glad a mesh showed up at all actually. The iray render looks great. Now I just need to understand how to export it as a whole. Any ideas?

Regardless of what settings you were to use for FBX, DAZ will not import FBX.  

FBX export has never been a problem, but importing even models exported from DAZ as FBX and then returning them immediately has been a problem, since forever, and Support at DAZ is aware of it. Regardless of the format used for FBX export from any source, DAZ Studio WILL NOT accept them. They will allow BVH import for motions though, as animation, in itself, is not particularly a strong feature point inside DAZ.

This is pushing me towards unity...I imported a cc character directly in and it looked good. Its just a beast of an application to learn.

Another option is Carrara (also by DAZ). It does import FBX and has a pretty nice renderer. Wendy uses it a lot, I believe.
