Hey all. I am at my whits end with Poser 8. I have an open case going on with SM with the never ending issues I'm having with it. I've already uninstalled it and re-installed it 3 times today.

Anyway.. to the question. What does it mean to "raise the Adaption threshold"? I keep getting a memory crash when I try to render. At the moment I am just trying to test render a scene for lighting. I have it set on the lowest setting that allows raytracing and my render size set to 1/2. I've even turned off indirect lighting. My computer should be more than sufficient to test render, but I have no luck. I have 16 GB Memory. I don't get how I keep getting memory crashes.

The exact message I get is:
"There was a problem during rendering. When using Firefly you can reduce rendering memory usage by rendering in a separate process, raising the Adaption threshold, or specifying a smaller bucket size."

I'm on an imac. Intel core i5 quad processor 16 GB memory. Yes I have the latest Poser updates.

Should I even bother or just get rid of Poser 8 once and for all?  :(
