Thanks for the info. Hopefully ver 4.x will take care of it. One more quick question on memory while I'm at it. In the text file that describes how to compute how much mem will be needed at rendering time, I don't quite understand the mapping one. It says to multiply horiz x vert x 3 to get the mem requirements for that particular map. Do I need to add this in for every instance of that map? Say I use wood-teak on 5 different objects, do I need to multiply the horiz x vert x 3 x 5 or do I need to do it just once? I think it is every instance but I would like to be sure since after calculating it out I need 19.6 MB (I have 20 MB) but I have a 12MB swap file whan it is done. Thanks again Dave
