Greetings,
My Question is: Does anyone know of a "formula" to figure out how much RAM is
needed to render VERY large scenes?
Example: # of Polys + Size of image maps + Resolution = Amount of RAM needed.
We are rendering some very large scenes that will be output to slide, not
video. I currently have a Fussion 40 w/32 meg of RAM and a Mega chip 2000,
which is not even close to enough memory. Is there a way to figure out how much
more memory we need to buy? Final resolution is 2000 x 1125.
Also, Does anyone have or know of an Arexx script to do batch rendering of
different scenes? (Load one scene, render, load the next scene, render etc.)
ANY....and I do mean ANY...help would be appreciated!!!
Thunk'ya very much....
