Hello, I was rendering a huge image (with 7 characters), and my computer was hanging up on it, with the "out of memory" poser message. It was weird to me, because i have 1 gigabyte of RAM... Anyways, looking deeper in my image, i noticed that i had by mistake applied some unnecessary textures to some figures. Let me take an example : i'm working on a man with his clothing. I use a MAT pose to change the man's skin, but by mistake i have the jacket selected. There are then some parts in the jacket which are now with "man parts", and textures applied to them, even if i do not see them. When i realized that, i edited the "ghost parts" to leave them with no texture at all. Doing this wherever it was necessary did allow me to do my render without problems. I know that won't apply in all cases, but maybe it can be of use to some of you...
