Hi quizzy,

 

I got it allready, but it doesn't solve my problem, because it renders a region instead of a blowup.

 

Say I want to render an image 15000x12000. Even if I split the image in 9 area's of 5000x4000, I still got to setup the 'canvas size' to 15000x12000. Max doesn't do this because it *can't create bitmap*.

 

I tried to manually render nine overlapping blowup's, but somehow every chunck got slightly scaled, which means that you'll have a hell of a job waiting for you in photoshop.

 

Anyone got a trick or a tip?

This means that if you split an image in say 9 chunks, you still have to setup you're

Hmm it's a dumb workaround the way i do it is netrendering on one single computer. just activate your backburner server, monitor, and manager. next submit a networkrenderingjob [even with one single computer it is possible to do a networkrenderjob]. In the dialog box choose Split scan lines, this will cut the final picture into chunks max can handle. You can define the size of every individual chunk, and even choose is max will stich them automatically. Supprises me autodesk didn't come up with this !!!

I don't know if VRimg2exr Converter will work at that size but you could try if you use VRay.

 

Using VRAY, you can write images to a VRIMG file through the FRAME BUFFER. I've used this when I run into the same problem with 'cannot create bitmap'. It works great. After the render, the file is saved as a .vrimg file at your pre-specified destination choice.

 

Then you go the VRay menu (start menu) and use their vrimg2exr converter. It is a simple command line tool and it works great!
