Quote - > Quote - Ho well il have to try the export option since I dont know how to reduce texture sizes.  

In the Output tab select the Collect texture option which will enable the slider for the size of the collected textures. Set the size to 2k or 1k and you are done. As usual, there are full details in the Reality User's Guide.

Hope this helps.

 

Certainly does I read the RUG many times but I suffer from ADD LOL. I will need to do this because even when I would re start the saved scene right from LUX it would take 5 to 7 minutes for it to run without bogging down so that I could adjust settings.  Render times did not take longer though.  I had it bake for approx 6 hours..
