Now a new prob. , although I think I saw someone else report this. After loading 4.06 yesterday, I continued an animation set up under 4.05. I loaded the save.clip plug-in, and the anim ran all night until I ended it today. Did some other project editing, and then tried to continue the anim rendering this afternoon. Gave the record file a new name, but the program repeatedly fails with error #80000004. I tried reloading the plug-in, and it took it, but still failed as soon as rendering was started. I am ending up with only about 7.5 meg free and have had to change the cam segment memory down to about 2800000 (I think that many 0's). It's trying to render in 26 to 30 segments. It worked this way yesterday. I also notice that the scene load program can't find images, even though it brings you to the directory that they're in. Quite annoying, but small potatoes compared to error #80000004. Is this something reported, or odd to my scene. I will now try something less demanding of the memory. Greg

Update since last message… It seems all scene renderings through the animation type clip save plugin are failing. Even some small scene files that are stock supplied. I switched back to saving to RGB images for tonight. Does iff2clip arrex still work? I'm wondering if the problem is that today I enabled HQ5 on the flyer help screen. I noticed in the readme doc that this will effect LW renderings. My drives can all handle this mode, but maybe there's a bug with the plugin when HQ5 has been enabled. Haven't tried disabling this….. yet. Greg
