Rendering with Wildfire 4.0 MO92 Schools Edition.

[OwenGroombridge]

Hello all, I'm having problems increasing the final resolution of photolux rendered assemblies. Currently, a 150mm x 150mm (70x70x70 assembley size) image at the highest settings, including the rendering of 'transparent' materials takes about 4-5 hours, yet only produces a 72dpi image. I'm using Wildfire 4.0 MO92, Schools Edition. Ultimately I'd like to produce images that are at least 300dpi, so: A: can I increase the output resolution size (in dpi)? B: is it possible to export .spl file extensions, so as to import into 'Blend'? C: Is anyone currently running ProE across a Linux based Beowulf Cluster, particularly for the rendering exercise? Many thanks, Owen, Five Islands School, St. Mary's.

Owen, Sorry for the delay in responding to your post. The DPI can be controlled when saving to a Postscript or Tiff file (use View> Model Setup> Render Setup). In the Render Setup dialog, you will see all export types. Unfortunately, I do not see a .spl type. I'd like to see your assembly as 4-5 hours seems like a very long time. Is your assembly that big? Send me an email at - if you need me to take a look at the assembly. Regards, Adam Haas Education Programs
