Hi, I'm trying to render a scene which uses a very low focal length (10mm) to catch a wide area and make the scene look more surreal. However I'm trying to use the firefly renderer in Poser but parts from the scenes objects always get cut off at the borders. There is a table that reaches beyond the frame borders and edges from the table are not being rendered. This doesn't happen with the poser classic renderer but this also has inferior quality. Any solutions?

Make sure your work window is the same proportion as your renderwindow. any variation will crop the end result one way or the other... If I'm missreading you post a sceenshot...

Ok, here's a picture of the problem... http://upload.corewatch.net/pics/Pool_Scene_Test2.jpg No, it's not a photographic edge effect from Pogotoshop! ;] If there's no way to get around it at a very small focal lengths I would import the scene into Vue and render it there. But if I import the scene into Vue, all objects are reset to their initial position. Would be great to know how to get that working too.

In general, this will occurr with ANY focal length of less than 20mm, and is a known limitation.

Ok, solved the prob by choosing another perspective with a 20mm lens. Thanks for helping!

Can`t this be fixed by playing about with the hither camera parameter? I would give that a try.

Do a search on ronstuff. He solved a lot of things I was working on by increasing the whole scene 500-1000%. Future refs anyway.
