                              I like the way you're displaying the progress. Quite impressed, now I know that I'm not alone to need so many

                                  The main file is about 9;46 meg at the moment but i am working in bits and pieces in various other drawings of the same project, that is where i am now running into problems with rendering the model the following ate the bestquality that i can get at the moment without my poor old laptop bombing out

                                      Thanks for the kind words i am using Kerkythea but still have a lot to learn about rendering i don't think i am going to get much further than i am now either the file is to big or i have a glitch in my laptop

                                        you mean the file is too big for kerk or SU? I thought your model size was just under 10MB?, is it usual for kerk to struggle with models 10MB plus or does it depend on your computer?

                                          Say what...??? 😕
                                          I've never had such a problem in KT...!!

                                          What can cause problems is if you have a huge number of lights in your scene combined with self-emitting mesh and then if you use one of the photonmap render presets...
                                          I have a 56Mb SU scene giving me huge issues in SU but none in KT and it renders without any difficulties... 😉

                                          Please don't spread such false rumours...!!

                                          Cheers
                                          Kim Frederik

                                            lol what you talking about spreading rumors?
                                            I was asking a question in response to this statement:

                                            "The main file is about 9;46 meg at the moment but i am working in bits and pieces in various other drawings of the same project, that is where i am now running into problems with rendering the model the following ate the bestquality that i can get at the moment without my poor old laptop bombing out".

                                            Thats why I was curious as im interested in getting Kerk but was worried about my laptop freezing as some of my models are 100MB.
