No, the render finishes.. doing 300 dpi, so the final piece is  about 16 inches.  5000 was a random number, usually I do about 3300 - which is 10.  I'm trying to do stuff that would be able to be printed for a poster - high resolution.  It also makes it easier to do postwork on it and have that look nice.

I'm not a math brain, however so perhaps I'm off on what I do need, but I was reading on deviant that things have to be a huge resolution in order to get a print of lik 24" X 24" or so.  

I am running 64 bit  PoserPro 2010, and have 8 GB ram with a Quad core ADM processor.   

Bagginsbill, I really respect your opinions, and appreciate your guidance.

Is it possible for it to crash but still appear to have finshed?
