Martin: <<<Well, you asked a small question and I gave you a big answer (sorry <G>)>>>> Correction: "Heavy Duty Answer"!!<BG> Makes me wanta go Knock over a Ram Factory!! I just began using my dream 64mb ram (thanks Bubba!) Just wondering…..what sound effects do you get from your speakers at 196mb ram (or 8 cpu's for that matter)? I get a low rythmic moaning noise while rendering with 64mb. The approach you used for foliage is wonderful and sounds very do-able but you've thrown in about a half mill of stuff I'll never get near except as janitor of the local SGI rep(though I've paid them several visits in different disguises)! <<<<< Many of the scenes are broken down into layers to make them more manageable for rendering and they are later composited together – a good technique to maximize rendering time with limited RAM.>>>>>>> Could you explain a little more how you render layers then reassemble ? Thanks, Gary
