This may sound a little ridiculous, but have you tried making the render bigger so that 80% of that is the actual size you want? If that works, then something is obviously still wrong, but it might help in the short term to get the render done.<br><br>ie. The new render would be 80% of 6750x4500<br><br>Short of that, I think there used to be some sort of odd limit with Blender I've run into before of images over either 5000 or 5k (5120) pixels in either dimension. It could just be that issue rearing it's head. Try an image of 4999 pixels wide, 5000, 5001, etc. perhaps.<br><br><div>> From: jrdnmlr@gmail.com<br>> Date: Mon, 28 Nov 2011 18:53:32 -0500<br>> To: bf-cycles@blender.org<br>> Subject: [Bf-cycles] question about cycles crash.<br>> <br>> So... I have a 3D model setup 5400x3600 pixels. It's a big one. I want to render it for a long time with Cycles and print out on a poster, which is why there are so many pixels. If I set the render to 10%, 50%, 80% frame size, everything works fine. If I set it to 100% it fails to render. Blender doesn't crash, but the Cycles render crashes during the BVH build.<br>> <br>> This was using Nvidia GeForce 560 Ti, which has 1 GB RAM. So I thought maybe it ran out of RAM. So I switched to CPU render to see if that was the problem.<br>> <br>> The computer has 8 GB RAM. Same result. Everything 80% frame size or smaller renders fine. 100% fails to render.<br>> <br>> So it's not filling up the RAM in the GeForce that is the problem. This is on Windows 7 with a 64bit build from Graphicall.org.<br>> <br>> Any ideas?<br>> <br>> I just can't fathom why it would be able to render at 80% frame size but not at 100% given that there is 8 GB of RAM.<br>> <br>> Any thoughts?<br>> <br>> I guess I will try again on Wednesday with the 2.61RC builds that just came out unless you can think of something else I could try.<br>> <br>> Let me know.<br>> <br>> ok thanks!<br>> <br>> jordan<br>> <br>> <br>> <br>> <br>> <br>> _______________________________________________<br>> Bf-cycles mailing list<br>> Bf-cycles@blender.org<br>> http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-cycles<br></div> </div></body>
