Hi there,

I'm just starting to learn about Vue, how to use it etc. I used Terragen 1 for my enviroment renders, then I tried Terragen 2, and now I'm using Vue and I love it :)

But I have this isue.. I made a scene, above the clouds, added 1 metacloud and an airplane. It looks just the way I want it to be, but the render time is over 7hours! It's insane, I've done similar renders but they never took so long. I'm rendering the image with a 1280x800 resolution 72 DPI, with Final quality, with a 2gb ddr2 ram pc. I thought that the plane or the metacloud is increasing the render time so I removed the from the scene, but it just went from 7hours to 6.30h. I even decreased the resolution to 640x400, but even that was estimated to about 40 minutes! I've rendered high-detail images in 1280x800 faster!

I tried to render the scene that comes with Vue, the one with the mountain surounded by clouds, and the estimate time was like 30-50minutes (forgot the exact estimate). So I'm thinking that maybe I have to tweak the atmosphere or something to decrease detail or set some settings off? The scene really isn't complex so I'm confused why the render time is that long.
