Any one else having this problem??? I have Vue 4 Pro and could render a fairly complicated image in a reasonable amount of time, ie under 10 hrs. I just got V5I yesterday and have created my first scene which I want to render at a nice quality setting. (800X600 @ 300 DPI, Superior setting) My scene consists of a dog, some trees and bushes. Terrain size is 500X500. Total poly count is 55,486,401.....more than any scene I've done in Vue 4 Pro. I know this scene will take some time to render and was prepared to let it go over night. Vue 5 I, however is saying it will take 40 hrs to render, that's almost two days!!! Now if I drop the render settings to final @ 80 DPI it will only take 12 hrs to render. Your asking why am I rendering at this setting??? I'm testing the render times because I want to make a render which I can make a print from. If this scene is taking 40 hrs to render I can't even imagine how long a render of that quality would take!!!

Oh yeah, my pc is a Dell XPS Gen 4, 2G memory, Pent 4 @ 3.6 GHZ, and 256MB ATI Radeon X850 XT video card.
