Hi there,

I'm having some trouble rendering scenes in poser 7 ( don't have sr1 yet but here's why ) :

I had the same problem using poser 6 although my computer perfectly matches the system requirements ( in fact it's even better than that ) None of the three service releases for P6 fixed the problem, so I gave up hoping SR1 for Poser 7 would do it since P7 itself still has the same problem...

I happen to have one of these programs that lets you see the amount of free RAM mamory. Now, whenever I try to render, the amount of free RAM memory never drops below +/- 500MB and there's still about 50 GB free disk space. Yet poser ( 7 ) tells me that I should do one of the following things:

lower the bucketsize ( it's allready down to a value of 1 )  
Render in a seprate process ( but what does that mean? Do I need to export my file to another 3D application?
The render dimensions are approximately 40cm x 40cm ( I know it's big, but it should be possible I've seen poser rendered images that big ) And yes I tend to put the render settings quite a bit towards the final stage, but then again I want to have a quality render.

raise the adaptation threshold ( again: what does that mean?) It's not in the manual, I even checked the one on my hard disk so I could do a word search and be sure: it's not in the manual.

If somebody knows what these two things mean, and how to do them, please let me know. 
If somebody knows why P7 doesn't render please let me know as well

Thanks a lot in advance,

PeeVee.
