So, as you can see the render had come a long way before whatever stopped it, from rendering to disk, did the @#$% thing. I have'nt touched Vue since this stopped, and am hoping to finish anything unrendered, if anyone can explain how to recover from this. This is was where I was going with the image. This image is from a 3,500 pixel file, that, strangely enough, renders in 4 hours! Thus, my expectation was that this Life Sized effort would complete almost overnight. Can anone explain this lag, I also need to render the type and two masks?
