Cannot create bitmap

[Msamir]

After about 2 hours of rendering an image at 3000 x 2200 I cant save it, I tried saving as every type but it keeps giving me the same error ( cannot create bitmap) I even tried duplicating the image to Maxs frame buffer but also gives me the same error and I dont want to rerender the image, Can anybody help ?

Thanks in advance.

a last resort - if it's still in the buffer and on the screen, print-screen or screen grab it in parts and paste it together in post.

 

dunno why this is happening.

I should've searched the forum before posting the thread, thanks Strat http://www.cgarchitect.com/vb/21961-v-ray-error-cannot-create-bitmap.html

It happens constantly to me, if I try to save the bitmap in a folder...but if I try to save it to desktop it works perfectly...don't know if this can help too...

I was saving on the desktop when it kept giving me this error, anyway I rerendered the image using the method in the thread I posted and saved it and it worked.Thanks.

I get this error on a regular. I heard it's because the memory is used during the render process and there isn't enough memory to save the image after the rendering is complete. I use a program called SnagIt and I just zoom in on the rendered image and do a screen capture and then pan over and repeat the process. I then go into Photoshop and combine all of the images. It's a pain, but it works.

I've to render 2,9m high and 3,9m wide in 100dpi !!!! last month. I've render it (Vray) in 50dpi using "crop" during render. so I've render 4 pieces and combine it in PS!

 

That was the biggest thing I've ever made!!!
