"but then it runs out of memory after the 30th frame."

Since you did render as an image sequence, have you tried starting the render again at the frame where it left off when it locked up? In other words, if it dies at frame 30, then reboot, and start your render again on frame 30. I don't know why it's crashing, but if you can't figure it out, that's one solution that might allow you to get through it via "brute force". Message edited on: 01/21/2005 14:16
