>>glad to know im not the only complainer!<< not in the least, my son! if the .txt file doesn't help what I do is to have 2 or even 3 batch files that start 3ds. One I use if I'm going to do a *lot* of shelling, i.e. to ani and/or acad r12. this bat file i call 3dsbig.bat, and i leave about 3 megs of ram free, plus boucoup conv. mem, which ani likes. The next I call 3dsmid, for shelling to ani only, leaving about 1 meg free. this is good for 8 bit mapping. finally one bat file that grabs all memory, everywhere, for overnight and final rendering. Phar lap says there is no setting that will make simms in your basement, I then, angrily, sugessted that this be on the wish list. They escorted me out of the building. This should help, as when I was at autodesk Jonas and I decided that this was the way to go, but read the latest, I've been gone a couple month. —————————————beak
