Sob! I am getting constant crashes on a scene I am trying to render with Firefly at production settings. What happens is, it starts rendering, but when it get to the hair of the character, the rendering stops, the render window becomes white, then the render meter disappears, and the image reappears on the render window, rendered normally down to the abortion point, and from there on, with the square buckets filled with a repetition of the last bucket that was rendered normally. The same scene, rendered with the Firefly at draft settings, completes with no problem. I have tried varying the settings of the production render, but I don't seem to be able to find the "guilty" one (or ones). Anyone can come to my rescue?? I'd hate to render the scene with draft. You can't believe how much detail is lost!! thank you! Orio
