Title: Rendering Errors - Oh, noez!
Post by: Zonic Blazer on March 12, 2008, 03:04:30 PM
Hey guys,

I'm having trouble rendering a scene I just put together in TG2. The rendering process starts perfectly fine, but like 1-2 hours later this window (as in the picture) pops up on the screen and the rendering is cancelled!  >:(

Any suggestions?  ???

This happens if Terragen has trouble allocating a large enough chunk of RAM for the next section of the image it is rendering. How much RAM do you have?

We've made lots of changes to the renderer over the last few months, and some of them will help to reduce the likelihood of seeing this error, but we can't guarantee to entirely eliminate memory allocation problems.

It's often helpful to close and re-open TG2 before starting any renders that may take a few hours.
