Quote - I am using "AW Courtyard Waterfall" for my scene, BB's Enviromental Sphere with an equirectangular picture, three M4 figures, A plant, and one light. The "AW Courtyard Waterfall" is a one piece prop with a lot of material zones. I have changed some of the textures on some of those zones to suit my preferences, but I have not touched the water.

Rendering with one light and Raytraced shadows but without IDL took about 10 minutes or less.

I just noticed in looking at the readme file that the water uses *.PSD files for the textures. I hate to stop the render to test and see if *.PSD files cause problems for IDL rendering. Obviously that would be one of the things I would check. Any and all other suggestions would be appreciated.

posers IDL is new. its not to good .....yet.i think your scene is to complicated for this render.

try rendering the reflection seperate . and then combine it later.
