I know this has been addressed many times, but did anyone ever find a simple solution to render large scenes at the final level in the render settings? I have Poser with SR3 update installed and 4gig of ram. Thanks.

Doing this is most of the time just stupid. Learn about the manual settings and use those.

Poser is 32 bit ans is limited to 2 GB of RAM. There is a trick by stewer to increase this limitation. Search this forum, as I don't have the thread anymore...

Poser just can't handle large scenes. It's old technology. You either render in sections and paste it together in photoshop, or  you import the scene into another program that can handle it (i.e. carrara, vue ect).

max out the slide bar in "auto settings" then click "manual settings" then "aquire from auto" uncheck "texture filtering" in manual settings, you can then render most sizes and detailed scenes  that way!!

The question is... what is a large scene ?

This one is a single render... Everything is directly from Poser... So, you can render large scene, if what you see here is considered as large scene (image was cropped).

I've had the same problem with rendering some scenes, depending on how detailed it was, and how I chose the final render to display, and I only have 512MB of RAM. Most of the time, the renders took a bit longer, but I would get a final render that was pretty good.

However, if you are running on XP Pro, you might want to check in Windows Task Manager, and see what OTHER processes you are running, and close down the things that are not system critical (such as Quicktime), as these use system resources too.

Good luck

there was no way i could render my 1st image in one go, 11 humans, uniforms, 7 trolls, space suits god knows how many props and bits, so i did it in, 12 renders (i think) and posted the lot together in PSP. you my think "what a pain" but to tell the truth this gave me a lot of freedom. 1 the renders were short plus if i didnt like it then change it and do again, without losing 6, 7, 8 hours
