After making a flame which I liked, I did a 640x480 test render which looked fine (although the render took longer than I expected). Now when I try to render at 16x12, quality 4k, oversampled 4x - I cannot get the image to render. I've limited the memory usage to 64Mb and still no joy - is this because my PIII 1.2/64Mb gfx card just isn't beefy enough?

Have you sent this question to the Apophysis mailing list? There are many knowledgable people there.

Fractals will always amaze me!

As far as I know, it doesn't really matter how powerful your GFX card is, and people have made flames with more modest PCs than yours. This sounds like a bug to me...how much memory do you have on your computer? Which version of Apo are you using?
