I have a project that has a ocean, accurate sailboat and I just added catalina island in the background. The project will render as a still or flic with any two of the objects but not all three. It stops at transforming objects while rendering. It has 80,680 faces and 42,610 vertices. It only takes a hr. to render any two ojects but will not get past transforming objests even after 14hrs. with all three. Anyone know what wall I'm hitting? It's looking good and I don't want to give anything up. -MIKE-
