#Too big Flics??

I am having a problem when rendering large flic files. I have 3ds3 on a small hard drive and I render out to a two gig hard drive (Drive E). There is at least 1.5 gig free. I can render several hundred frames as targa files – no problem, but when I render large flic files, say 200 frames, 640×480 res, with pallet set at medium I get a "Error writing file – out of disk space" message, ussually after 120 frames or so.. I have set CFIG386.3ds to redirect the swap file to E:\swap. Is this file called up every time 3ds3 is loaded or do I need to load it in a bat file? Is there something else going on? I can't find anything in 3ds.set that may be causing this problem. Any help here will be greatly appreciated. Greg Beck – Beck Technical
