Quote - I had a little trouble last night. FFRender kept crashing on me. I discovered two things I'd like to pass on. I checked the Poser TextureCache (found in Documents and Settings/Local Settings/Temp) and it was crammed full with 1.7 gigs of files going back to about the last 4 images I had rendered. I cleaned this cache out manually. Number 2, I don't think P8 likes a bucket size of 16. I put my bucket size back up to 32. After doing both things, I was rendering fine again. This may not be a problem for people with more RAM. My Toshiba Satellite only has 512 megs of RAM, something I need to remedy but money is tight right now.
That's interesting - I'm having FF render issues as well! I discovered three folders in the User/AppData/Local/Temp/Poser/8.0 folder (Vista 32 bit) and found 1.1 Gb in the texture cache, 30Mb in an "undo cache", and 20Mb or so in a FFrender cache. Even more interesting is A SECOND PoserTextureCache that contained another 1.1Gb of temporary files - the sames ones I found in the Poser/8.0 subfolder. I manually cleared all folders - will see if the errors persist.
I also checked my PoserPro folder for cache files - both were totally empty.
Thanks for this thread - else I probably would have shelved P8 yet again.
