For realistic skin shading should I use the AL shaders or the standard Arnold shaders that ship with 3dsmax 2018 or 2019 ?

If you are using arnold 5 AL shaders no longer works. Arnold 5 shaders covers most of AL shaders functionalities and are faster. Arnold 5 introduced random walk SSS thats really good.

Arnold 5 shaders are al shaders(Updated) , because developer of al shaders was hired by sold angle.
